The style of self-regulation of behavior among students of a medical university engaged in sports

The purpose of the study is to determine the specifics of self-regulation of behavior (as a component of the volitional sphere of personality) among students of a medical university who are engaged in sports sections. Research methods and organization. An applied comparative study of the volitional qualities of university students engaged in sports clubs has been conducted. To collect data, the methodology "Behavioral Self-Regulation Style" developed by V.I. Morosanova was used. The results of the study were processed using methods of mathematical statistics. Research results and conclusions. Students who systematically engage in sports demonstrate significantly higher levels of modeling and flexibility in their activities, as well as greater accuracy in evaluating outcomes and an overall level of self-regulation. However, among this group, individuals with low and medium levels of action planning are significantly more common. The specificity of the "autonomous control-regulating" style of self-regulation of behavior, identified among students at the medical university who participate in sports sections, must be taken into account when implementing the educational process.
