| Description: | Introduction. One of the effective means of psychological support at the stage of preparation for combat missions is vocational and psychological training, which allows developing professional significant psychological qualities of the operator of the Special Operations Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (DADI – SSpO), necessary for the effective performance of assigned tasks, as well as improving the effectiveness of joint combat activities. Training is a method of active learning aimed at developing knowledge, skills, and social attitudes, during which the SSpO operator reviews his own values and priorities, corrects, improves and develops certain qualities and properties of his personality, chooses for himself the behavioral strategies that are necessary to perform the assigned tasks. The experience of using psychological training for the development of various military-professional competencies has a long historical tradition. The first mention of business games in Western Europe (XVII – XVIII) is noted as "royal game" (1664), "military chess" (1780), "maneuvers on the map" (1798). Development training is also reflected in the works of modern military psychologists: I. Moskaliov (2020), D. Lysenko (2021), S. Cherevychnny (2022), S. Ilyushchenko, A. Kirichenko, O. Yurkova (2023). Purpose. Determination of the purpose, objectives and structure of psychological training for the development of frustration tolerance of the SSpO operator, as well as analysis and interpretation of the results of approbation of the program for the development of frustration tolerance of SSpO operators at the stage of preparation for combat missions. Methods. To solve the tasks set in the work, theoretical research methods were used: analysis of the research problem, synthesis, comparison, generalization; statistical: descriptive statistics, statistical criteria in accordance with the objectives of the study: Kolmogorov-Smirnov λ-criterion, Mann-Whitney U-criterion. Originality. The article reveals the author's approach to the purpose, objectives and structure of psychological training for the development of frustration tolerance as a professionally important property of the operator of the Special Operations Forces. The program of development of frustration tolerance of operators of the Special Operations Forces "I go to you", developed and tested by the researcher, contributed to the development of frustration tolerance in each participant of the training, as resistance to frustrating factors of the combat situation; improvement of skills and abilities to counteract the negative traumatic factors of combat missions; training in collective decision-making procedures in extreme combat conditions and teamwork skills; mastering strategies of behavior in extreme conditions of performing tasks as intended. The obtained results of the formative stage of the psychological experiment show the effectiveness of the application of the program of development and improvement of the indicators of the studied SSpO operators of the experimental group, in contrast to the control group. The development program can be used by officers of the structures of moral and psychological support of military units (units) of the Special Operations Forces as a tool for the development of frustration tolerance during special psychological training activities. Conclusion. 1. Specific conditions for the performance of combat missions by SSpO operators require the maximum possible limit of resistance of the SSpO operator to adverse frustrating factors of the combat situation, which depends on the formation and development of the emotional-volitional (regulates the course of mental processes, as well as adequate perception of the frustrating situation, its cold-blooded assessment and response to a frustrating situation), value-motivational (determines the needs, beliefs, ideals, incentives and motives of the SSpO operator, his combat motivation), cognitive-cognitive (accumulates knowledge, skills, abilities for effective performance of tasks, as well as the ability of the SSpO operator to perceive, realize and process information, make informed decisions in frustrating conditions for performing tasks) and behavioral (includes decisions and actions of the SSpO operator aimed at constructively overcoming frustration situations of the combat situation) spheres of personality of the SSpO operator. The developed and tested program for the development of frustration tolerance of SSpO operators "I'm going to you" to perform tasks in combat conditions testifies to its effectiveness, which is confirmed by positive changes among SSpO operators from the EG. Analysis of empirical data indicates statistically significant positive changes in the Mann-Whitney U-test in terms of frustration tolerance in EG. We consider the definition of qualification psychological requirements for the position of SSpO operators, the development of tools for targeted psychological training for special reconnaissance and special events (search, ambush, raid, etc.) to be promising directions for further research of the problem of frustration tolerance of SSpO operators, study of the dependence of the individual level of frustration tolerance on the cohesion of the special forces group and the level of trust in their combat comrades.
