The article presents the results of theoretical and empirical research of the problem of psychological aspects of ensuring the efficiency of professional activity of a Project Engineers in the context of the theory of general and special abilities, the need to take into account the general and individual-typological in the mental development of the subject of labor. The importance of considering professional skills in connection with the intellectual readiness of the subject to the activity and individual style of its implementation is theoretically substantiated. The empirical study revealed the presence of correlations between the efficiency of professional activity, psychological readiness and individual style of activity. The most referent in the description of the professional skills of project engineers are the time of labor tasks performance and individual style of activity, and the organizing factor in the unity of these indicators is the generalization of mental activity, which forms the core of intellectual readiness for work. Correlation analysis of the data allowed us to identify the presence of clear links between: 1) the efficiency of activity by time indicator and ISA: the more ISA corresponds to the reference method, the less time is spent on solving the labor task, and vice versa; 2) between ISA and intellectual readiness for activity; the higher the level of complexity of labor tasks, the higher the level of correlation between these phenomena.

The article presents the results of theoretical and empirical research of the design engineers’ (civil engineering) professional activity psychological readiness problem, which was carried out in the general and special abilities’ theory context, the need to take into account general and individual typological mental development. The subject of study was intellectual readiness for work, as a system of mental activity qualities - generalization, awareness, independence, resilience, which are necessary for solving work tasks, and individual style of work - its formation (certainty), compliance with the reference method of work tasks and executive, in connection with the labor activity efficiency - quality and time costs. It was found that these pgsychological readiness components are interrelated, and the oranizing factor in their unity (as well as specific elements and indicators of manifestation) is the generalization of mental activity, which provides the subject's ability to determine and use the optimal way to solve work problems. The conclusion about the need for professionals to develop psychological readiness to work in such a structure is based on the results of empirical research.

The article describes the personality characteristics of future psychologists-practitioners, who may at the same time be constituents of their professiogram, among which communicative competence occupies an important place. The purpose of our research was to study the psychological and pedagogical correlates of communicative competence of future psychologists-practitioners through the analysis of its separate components, which are resources for building effective communications. Communicativeness is defined as a professional basic competence that includes the following elements: tolerance, intolerance, acceptance of oneself, acceptance of others, self-regulation of one’s own emotions and states, flexibility, contactability, understanding of client’s emotions. At the same time, communicativeness is explored as the basic competence of a psychologist-practitioner, which sets the client up for positive and productive interaction in the process of psychological help, which is not an innate skill, so it can be improved during both professional training and during life. The statistical significance of the selected psychological and pedagogical correlates and their psychological components is determined. The multidimensional correlation study showed significant positive and negative correlations between the studied indicators. The components of psychological and pedagogical correlates of communicative competence are analyzed and substantially explained: tolerance, intolerance, flexibility in the communicative process, contactability, communicative control, communicative abilities.

The article is devoted to the analysis and empirical study of the most promising developmental tasks of the modern educational environment for the development of new approaches to the organization and psychological support of the development of a person's productive activity. These tasks clearly demonstrate the relationship between the motivational sphere of the individual and the social environment, the effectiveness of the influence of social factors on the development of the individual, the importance of studying their hierarchization according to the degree of influence. The relevance of the research lies in the fact that the study of the possibility of a targeted impact through social factors, norms, requirements on the motivational-need sphere of a developing personality will allow to determine to a large extent, the direction of its development. Our research is based on the assumption that the analysis of the motivational profile will allow us to understand how student youth comes to the realization of the need to coordinate the goals, requirements, wishes of the external environment with their own motivation. The aim of the study was to study the influence of the individual's objective attitudes on the structure of professional activity motives. To solve the set tasks, the following methods were used: the motivational profile of S. Ritchie and P. Martin, the test "20 statements". The results obtained by the method of S. Ritchie and P. Martin confirmed our hypothetical assumption, the respondents predominantly chose the objective components of the motivational structure, which were substantively related to the social expectations of the subjects (from society to themselves). The results obtained confirmed the prospects of studying the influence of social factors on the development of the motivational-need-related sphere of the individual. The analysis of social factors makes it possible to study and model the conditions that contribute to the rethinking of the actual situation by the individual and the creation of new meanings of activity that provide for a wider non-utilitarian social context that goes beyond the current situation.
