This paper continues the cycle of interdisciplinary studies that feature a new technology of audiovisual induction of altered states of consciousness. The technology is based on a combination of models, methods, and approaches of psychology, mathematics, and computer science. The research objective was to prove that the technology can induce relaxation states. The authors conducted two experiments with a specific configuration of synchronized fractal and musical sequences. The study involved 47 people, who were presented with audiovisual stimulation. Before and after the procedure, the panelists were presented with two sets of questionnaires to define their mental and emotional state. The results demonstrated significant negative changes on the demobilizing components: mental anxiety or resentment (N), mental depression and exhaustion (D) and depressed mood (S). The data analysis confirmed the hypothesis: the method can induce states of relaxation. The data obtained are can be used in further experiments, e.g. to reveal creative potential by means of audiovisual stimulation.

This research is part of a large-scale project aimed at creating a factor model of creative leadership potential. The present article features the effect of major and gender of students on their creative leadership potential. The authors identified groups of variables that characterize creative leadership potential. The study was based on the holodynamic and trans-communicative paradigm. The following range of scientific methods made it possible to determine the characteristics of creative leadership potential: the method of modeling communicative worlds, the method of psychosemantic graph, Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, sociability scale profile, and social network analysis. The study involved 189 students of humanities (101) and science (88). The results showed the specificity of personal creative characteristics and parameters of the communicative world of the participants. Gender proved insignificant for future research. Students that majored in humanities appeared both more original and more conformal. They tended to find unusual negative points in positive topics and problems. Science students worked better with specific information and facts. They were good at evaluating alternatives and planning.

Представлены результаты исследования структуры когнитивно-креативного потенциала лидерства. Применены методы коммуникативно-когнитивной психосемантики. Выборка составила 78 студентов разных направлений подготовки. В генеральный фактор когнитивно-креативного потенциала лидерства вошли когнитивная сложность восприятия партнеров, эмоционально позитивный фон описания проблем и партнеров, общая оригинальность, потенциальная психосемантическая гибкость. Эти показатели отразили основные аспекты исследуемого феномена. Ключевые слова: трансфессионал; коммуникативная методология; коммуникативный мир личности; когнитивно-креативный потенциал лидерства; когнитивная психосемантика коммуникативного мира.

In the process of transition of university education to a "transfessional" channel, an urgent problem in the formation of a "transfessional" personality arises. "Transfession" is the ability to change the main profession for new tasks, acting on top of the profession, changing yourself in a situation of uncertainty. One of the main features of this personality is the potential for creative leadership. The contemporary literature describes the phenomenon of creative leadership potential; however, a reliable method for diagnosing creative leadership potential is not presented. This study focuses on the possibility of using the author's dynamic fractal method to diagnose students' creative leadership potential. According to the results of the pilot study, a feedback analysis after the sessional exposure using the fractal dynamic method was carried out. As a result of this analysis, twelve main categories were identified. Using mathematical statistics, the specific relationship of these categories is identified, which forms the core of the creative leadership potential. The data obtained allow us to argue about the possibility of using dynamic fractals to diagnose the potential of creative leadership of students.
