Determining the type of personality in sports. Determining the type of personality in sports Psychology tests for athletes
Practical experience of working with high-class athletes and the study of existing literature on this issue were the basis for creating an athlete's personality map. According to this map, the structure of the athlete's personality includes socio-psychological, psychological, professional and medical-biological substructures.
Each substructure includes several groups of qualities. The group of qualities, in turn, consists of individual qualities, skills and abilities. Thus, the structure of the athlete's personality, consisting of 4 substructures, including several groups of qualities in each, constitutes a multi-level hierarchical system.
The highest level of the structure is the social one, which determines ideological maturity, moral and moral qualities, and motivational motives for activity. This level has a decisive influence on all underlying substructures.

Keys. Interpretation.
Due to the fact that the socio-psychological substructure is difficult to qualify, its assessment involves a particularly attentive, deeply critical generalization of the results of a fairly long observation in real activity and, above all, in complex, extreme situations. This work also assumes the correction of the marks, which is associated with the dynamics of qualities and skills in the course of training and competitive activity, taking into account their periods.
In other substructures (psychological, professional, biomedical), the scales of the table allow you to approach the assessment of qualities in a more differentiated way. The proposed rating scales do not exclude, but, on the contrary, suggest a creative approach to the assessment of specific athletes or persons preparing to become them, and its mandatory correction in relation to a particular sport or period. sports activities etc.

Processing of materials for the study of sports motivation.
The structure of sports motivation includes the following grounds:
Incentive reasons that includes two factors. The first factor - K1 - reflects the fundamental orientation of the athlete to the satisfaction of spiritual needs - self-affirmation, self-expression, fulfillment of public duty. The coefficient K1 was found as follows.
The answer “yes, very important” is worth 5 points; “more important than not important” - 4 points; “not very important” - 3 points; “rather not important than important” - 2 points; "Doesn't matter" - I point. The sum of points when answering questions from I to 15 is divided by 15 and the value of the coefficient K1 is found. The second factor - K2 - reflects the orientation of the athlete to meet material needs. The sum of points when answering questions from 16 to 23 is divided by 8 and the value of the coefficient K2 is found.
Basic bases including three factors. The first factor - KZ - reflects the degree of an athlete's interest in favorable social conditions for sports activities. The KZ coefficient is found by dividing the sum of points when answering questions 24 to 34 by P. The second factor - K4 - reflects the degree of an athlete's interest in accumulating knowledge / special skills. The coefficient K4 is found by dividing the sum of points when answering questions from 35 to 49 by 15. The third factor - K5 - reflects the degree of interest of the athlete in the absence of pain. The K5 coefficient is found by dividing the sum of points when answering questions from 50 to 55 by 6.
Procedural grounds that includes two factors. The first factor - Kb - reflects the degree of an athlete's interest in accumulating knowledge about his opponents. The coefficient K7 is found by dividing the sum of points when answering questions from 56 to 71 by 16. The second factor - K7 - reflects the degree of an athlete's interest in the absence of psychogenic influences that adversely affect the results of competitive activity. The K7 coefficient is found by dividing the total score when answering questions 72 to 80 by 9.

Introduction
In accordance with the order of Rossport No. 777 of November 27, 2006 No.
within the framework of the Laboratory of Physical Culture and Practical Psychology of the All-Russian Research Institute of Physical Culture and Sports (Moscow), a Psychological Service was created to work with highly qualified athletes. In the course of questioning the members of the national teams of the country, the most important (from the point of view of athletes) directions (forms) of the work of a psychologist in a team were identified. Conducting psychodiagnostics, which allows to identify the strengths of the athlete's personality and his "psychological resource", turned out to be the most popular direction in the psychological support of sports training.
Of particular importance in this regard are the issues of rational planning of psychological testing of athletes, a comprehensive analysis of the data obtained, and interpretation of research results in relation to sports practice.
Despite the fact that psychodiagnostic methods in our country are widely published and replicated, many of them can be found on the Internet, the book "Psychodiagnostics in sports" is still the basic guide for the psychodiagnostic work of a sports psychologist. However, some new practically significant aspects of planning, analysis and interpretation of the results of an in-depth psychological examination (UPE), a staged psychological examination (EPS), a current psychological examination (TPE), as well as psychodiagnostics carried out as part of individual counseling of athletes will be considered below. This material is based on 16 years of experience of the Laboratory.
Key points
The battery of tests that we use once a year as part of the UPR includes 6-10 methods, which are distributed to athletes in the form of special forms for self-completion. This work is preceded by a special "motivating" instruction. Practice has shown that it is blank (not computer) testing that allows you to get the most accurate answers, and the appropriate preliminary briefing turns the routine filling of forms into a useful "psychological training". Below is a tested battery of UPR tests for national teams (bold type), supplemented in relation to the diagnosis of a club team, when a psychologist has the opportunity to conduct the same study in several stages (Table 1 , increase by clicking on the image).
Systematization, analysis and interpretation of the obtained data is a rather complicated process. However, the possibility of subsequent implementation in the team of other other forms of psychological and pedagogical support of sports training largely depends on its quality. The experience of our work shows that the most convenient form for the coaching staff to provide psychodiagnostic data is a ranked graphical representation of them with the designation of the author's "norm", as well as the average result for the team and the zone of sigmal deviations.
Table 2 presents the algorithm for preparing practical recommendations based on the results of team psychodiagnostics and the procedure for its provision to the customer.
Block of stage and current psychological testing was introduced by the Federal Center for Sports Training (Moscow) in the programs of scientific and methodological support for national teams in 2010. Complex scientific groups (CSG) were charged with the duty to regularly evaluate the "psycho-emotional" state of athletes, and the content of such an assessment was also regulated. In general, this was an important step towards the revival of the system of psychological and pedagogical support for the training of highly qualified athletes.
According to the new provision, the psychological block of a staged comprehensive examination (IVF) should include the registration of the following indicators: the level of self-regulation of mental states and self-control, volitional mobilization, the level of claims and self-esteem, and needs. The program of the current examination (TO), implemented in the conditions of the training camp, should include an assessment of the level of situational anxiety, emotional state, aggressiveness, psychophysiological performance, motivational state, assessment of well-being, activity, mood and degree of mental fatigue.
To implement this program, our Laboratory has proposed and tested a fairly simple and informative testing technology.
Any EPO begins with the athlete filling out a personal card containing basic information about the athlete - full name, sport, category, title, main sporting achievement, name and date of the last and next competition.
The beginning of testing should be preceded by an introductory instruction aimed at solving several problems. Firstly, to establish a trusting working relationship between the athlete and the psychologists conducting this examination, to guarantee the confidentiality of the information received. Secondly, to acquaint with the procedure for filling out the proposed blank methods, anticipating possible difficulties in this case. Thirdly, to motivate the athlete for conscious, independent and responsible work, to provide additional information about the possibilities of subsequent individual psychological preparation or psychological assistance in difficult life situations.
All completed questionnaires are assigned an appropriate code so that they become "impersonal" for everyone except the psychologist (a member of the complex scientific group), the coach and the athlete himself.
Questionnaire "Assessment of mental reliability" to assess the level of self-regulation and self-control,
Questionnaire "Assessment of strength and duration volitional effort» to assess volitional mobilization,
Questionnaire "Study of self-esteem" to assess the level of claims and self-esteem,
Questionnaire "Diagnostics of personal and group basic needs".
If desired, this battery can be supplemented with an eight-color test by M. Luscher and a questionnaire "The degree of chronic fatigue."
The interpretation of the obtained results can be built according to the algorithm of Table 2.
To assess the "psycho-emotional" state of athletes in training camp conditions (TPO) we propose to use a set of indicators that can conditionally be attributed to three conditional blocks - functional, behavioral and psychological (Table 3):
In the future, the psychological testing specified by the daily regulations is carried out through self-assessment of various conditions on a 10-point scale (except for heart rate):
The level of situational anxiety - the value on the scale "Anxiety",
Assessment of well-being, activity, mood - values on the scales "Health", "Activity", "Mood",
The level of emotional state - the total value on the scales "Health", "Activity", "Mood",
Aggressiveness - the value on the scale "Desire to compete",
Psychophysiological performance - the value on the scale "General performance", as well as an indicator of heart rate,
Motivational state - the value on the scale "Desire to train",
The degree of mental fatigue - the value on the scale "Mental fatigue", as well as the indicator of heart rate.
The introductory instruction is as follows: “The plan for conducting training camps involves taking into account the individual psychological state of the participants. To do this, you are invited to carry out a self-assessment of your own condition daily in the morning according to the specified criteria (provided that the minimum score is 1 and the maximum score is 10). Table 4 presents the working part of the monitoring form.
Having received such a form, the athlete independently monitors his condition. The means of mobile communication makes it possible to daily transfer to the psychologist the indicators of the current state of the athlete, its assessment and correction due to the prompt communication of the psychologist with the athlete and / or with the coaching staff.
The psychologist can work with the results obtained after the return of the team. since the forms handed over by the athletes allow us to evaluate the effectiveness of the collection and prepare additional recommendations. However, in order to obtain more reliable information, we included the following final and neutral wording in the form: “How systematically did you manage to fill out this form in the conditions of the training camp? (Rate in points from 1 to 10).” The results of this approach allow the psychologist to weed out low-quality forms and interpret the results more accurately.
It is also possible to monitor the condition of athletes in the conditions of training camps or multi-day competitions using simpler methods: using self-assessment on the scales “Health, Activity, Mood”, performing one of the tapping test options, etc.
Both group and individual work with an athlete, carried out as part of a consultation, will be more effective when used as an "objective base" for starting work on the results of testing according to the following methods: "Attitude towards the upcoming competition", "Luscher's eight-color test", "Color relationship test", "Character accentuations", "Degree of satisfaction of basic needs ".
Experience shows that in individual counseling, the “necessary and sufficient” tool for understanding the personal characteristics of an athlete and the characteristics of his current state is the Luscher Eight-Color Test. We have developed a special form of ordering the received digital data and verbal formulations of this test:
Conclusion
So, having revealed a rather high interest of athletes in psychodiagnostics as part of the systemic psychological and pedagogical support of sports training, in the period from 2003 to 2016. we have tested a number of psychodiagnostic methods that can be used in the framework of the UPR, EPO and TPE, as well as in the course of individual advisory work with athletes.
Of particular importance is the practically oriented interpretation of the obtained figures and verbal formulations, i.e. algorithms and forms for providing test results to the customer. In this direction, various approaches can be implemented, since their choice largely depends on the internal logic of a sports psychologist conducting testing. However, I would like to hope that our experience presented in this article will also be useful.

But the motivation of fear of failure is less productive. With this type of motivation, a person seeks, first of all, to avoid censure, punishment. The expectation of unpleasant consequences is what determines his activity. Having done nothing yet, a person is already afraid of a possible failure and thinks how to avoid it, and not how to succeed.
