Analysis of the results of the study according to the method of J. Taylor "Scale of anxiety"

Anxiety is an individual emotional feature of a person, consisting in an increased tendency to experience anxiety in a variety of ways. life situations, including those that do not predispose to this.

At the psychological level, anxiety is felt as anxiety, tension, preoccupation, fussiness, nervousness. It is experienced in the form of feelings of uncertainty, helplessness, impotence, insecurity, loneliness, threatening failure, inability to make a decision.

At the physiological level, the anxiety reaction is manifested in an increase in heart rate, increased breathing, an increase in the minute volume of blood circulation, an increase in blood pressure, the appearance of sweating, an increase in general excitability, a decrease in sensitivity thresholds, when previously neutral stimuli acquire a negative emotional coloring.

Due to the fact that our study is aimed at identifying readiness for professional activity, it is clear that the question of anxiety at work cannot be overlooked. It is very important to measure the level of anxiety, since this feature of the individual largely determines his behavior. First of all, it causes attention disorders, which can be life-threatening. It is also known that a high level of anxiety does not provide efficient operation. In this regard, we used the technique of J. Taylor "Anxiety Scale".

Our study showed that 27 subjects have a high level of anxiety. A high level of anxiety caused by the expectation of a possible failure can be seen as an adaptive mechanism that increases the responsibility of the individual in the face of social demands and attitudes. high anxiety implies a tendency to the appearance of a state of anxiety in a person in situations of assessing his competence. In this case, the subjective significance of the situation and tasks should be reduced and the emphasis should be shifted to understanding the activity and forming a sense of confidence in success.

Subjects with low anxiety (24 subjects), on the contrary, require increased attention to the motives of activity and increased sense of responsibility. But sometimes very low anxiety in test scores is the result of a person's active displacement of high anxiety in order to show himself in a "better light".

The average scores for academic performance and the level of anxiety were summarized in a common table 3.1.

Spearman's rank correlation coefficient was measured to find the relationship between anxiety levels and grade point average. Which showed that there is no relationship between anxiety levels and performance grades (0.15).

Anxiety is traditionally understood as one of the personality traits and is not considered as a product of the conditions prevailing in labor activity. The state of increased anxiety exists and is often found in a student functioning in a learning model " man - technology". Moreover, this state is directly related to the characteristics of the activity, its organization and has a significant impact on the success of work.

The lack of communication is explained by the fact that educational activities take place in relatively comfortable conditions (compared to work activities), and therefore there are no fears, fears about the student's learning activities. While in labor activity, a whole system of material savings is carried out for poor-quality performance of one's labor duties.

METHODOLOGY
ANXIETY MEASUREMENTS
(J. Taylor, adaptation by V. G. Norakidze)

DESCRIPTION

Scale of "manifestations of anxiety"(Manifest Anxiety Scale, MAS) - a personality questionnaire. Designed to measure the manifestations of anxiety. Published by J. Taylor in 1953. The scale statements were selected from the Minnesota Multidimensional Personality Inventory (MMPI) set of statements. The choice of items for the scale of "manifestations of anxiety" was carried out on the basis of an analysis of their ability to distinguish individuals with "chronic anxiety reactions".

Processing of research results is carried out similarly to the MMPI procedure. The anxiety index is measured on a T-score scale. The Anxiety Manifestation Scale is often used as one of the additional MMPI scales. At the same time, the result of measuring anxiety not only complements the data on the main clinical MMPI scales, but in some cases can also be involved in the interpretation of the profile as a whole. As research data show (J. Reich et al., 1986; J. Henser, W. Mayer, 1986), the state of anxiety is associated with a change in the cognitive assessment of the environment and oneself. With high indicators of the level of anxiety, it is necessary to observe certain caution in interpreting self-assessment data.

In 1975, V. G. Norakidze supplemented the questionnaire with a scale of lies, which makes it possible to judge demonstrativeness and insincerity in the answers.

The questionnaire contains 60 statements and is designed to assess the level of anxiety as one of the indicators of an employee's adaptation to professional activity.

For ease of use, each statement is offered to the subject on a separate card.

The statements were selected from the Minnesota Multidimensional Personality Inventory (MMPI) set of statements. Select items for the test. was carried out on the basis of an analysis of their ability to distinguish between individuals with "chronic anxiety reactions". Testing lasts 15-30 minutes.

More well-known are the variants of the methodology in the adaptation of T. A. Nemchinov and V. G. Norakidze, who in 1975 supplemented the questionnaire with a lie scale, which makes it possible to judge demonstrative, insincerity in the answers. Both versions of the questionnaire are used in individual and group examinations, are able to solve both theoretical and practical problems and can be included in a battery of other tests.

Instruction: Read the first statement in the questionnaire. If you agree with this statement, then put an “X” in the “Yes” column of the answer sheet, if you do not agree, put an “X” in the “No” column. Evaluate all 60 statements of the questionnaire in this way. Try to work as quickly as possible, especially do not think about the answers, since the first answer that comes to mind is usually the most correct one. Recordings cannot be corrected.

Interpretation: First, you should process the results on the lie scale. It diagnoses the propensity to give socially desirable responses. If this indicator exceeds 6 points, then this indicates the insincerity of the subject.

Lie Scale

  • Answers "Yes" to items: 2, 10.39, 55 are estimated at 1 point.
  • Answers "No" to items: 16, 20, 28, 29, 41, 51, 59.

Anxiety Scale

  • Answers “Yes” to items 6, 7, 9 11, 12, 15, 18, 21, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 42, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 53, 54, 56, 60.
  • Answers “No” to items: 1, 3, 45, 8.13, 14, 17, 19, 22, 43, 52, 57, 58.

Then the total score on the anxiety scale is calculated:

  • 40 - 50 points is considered as an indicator of a very high level of anxiety;
  • 25 - 40 points - indicates a high level of anxiety;
  • 15 - 25 points - about the average (with a tendency to high) level of anxiety;
  • 5 - 15 points - about the average (with a tendency to low) level of anxiety;
  • 0 - 5 points - about a low level of anxiety.
