“…Researchers recognize that hardiness develops over time in the context of person-environment interactions [10,19]. Some say that the roots of hardiness lie in youngsters' early experiences and discuss the ideal conditions for its development [10]. They believe that people with a high level of hardiness frequently experienced stress and conflict in childhood [7.…”

“…10]. They make a hypothesis that stressful circumstances are linked to the response of the family and the individual [10]. Other researchers show convincing empirical evidence that hardy persons are more likely to maintain health and build a career in stressful conditions [6,7,20,21].…”

“…The results indirectly support the idea that not only stressful circumstances in early life (such as loss, social and economic changes, war, etc.) contribute to the development of hardiness, but rather the response of the inner circle (primarily the family) and the individual to such circumstances [10].…”

“…They note that hardiness as a personality characteristic is developed over time, therefore, its level may be slightly lower in younger people [9]. Studies of hardiness in adolescents have shown that age, religion, and the well-being of the family have strong correlations with hardiness [10]. Comparison of the hardiness level in groups of students and teachers proves that hardiness tends to develop with age [11].…”

Stress factors are increasing in the modern world and the scientific community has to search for resources to ensure the effective functioning of the individual in all conditions. Numerous studies have shown that turning a traumatic situation into something positive improves physical health and well-being of the individual. They provided the foundations for the emergence of concepts which address global orientations that contribute to finding meaning and evoke positive emotions in difficult situations. Hardiness is an example of such an intrapersonal resource to cope with stress. The aim of the study was to assess the impact of regional and generational factors on the level of personality hardiness. This is a crosssectional study comparing the level of hardiness in people grouped by the region of residence and identification with a certain generation. The type of generational identity was determined through the answers to the question "Which generation values are closer to you?". The level of hardiness was assessed using the Russian version of the Hardiness Survey adapted by D.A. Leontiev. Multivariate analysis of variance was used for mathematical data processing. The study involved 128 participants (64 inhabitants of the Northwestern Federal district of Russia; 64 inhabitants of the Ural Federal district of Russia), of whom 64 were males and 64 were females, aged between 17 and 72. According to the generational identity, the respondents were divided into 4 groups of 32 each: postwar generation, Soviet generation, transitional generation, post-Soviet generation. The study showed that the level of personality hardiness depends on the region of residence. The joint influence of the regional and generational factors on the level of hardiness is significant. At the same time, in the Northwest Russia, the relationship between the studied variables is nonlinear (the lowest level of hardiness is observed in people identifying themselves as the postwar and post-Soviet generations), and in the Ural region it is linear (people identifying themselves as the postwar and Soviet generations have a higher level of hardiness than people identifying themselves as the transitional and Soviet generations). The results of the study have expanded the understanding of differences between generations and inhabitants of different regions of Russia.

Objective. The article presents the result of researching Hardiness of generations living in different regions of North-West Russia. The aim of the research is to identify changes in Hardiness of generations over the past decade.Background. The modern social context (urbanization, informatization, pandemic, etc.) actualizes the problem of finding resources that allow a person to cope with life’s difficulties. So it’s safe to say that the residents of megapolis have certain qualities that distinguish them from the residents of regional centers and small cities, which are a means of adapting to the specifics of an aggressive urban environment. Therefore, the characteristics of hardiness, as the ability of the individual to withstand a stressful situation, while maintaining internal balance without compromising performance, in terms of socialization (metropolis/regional center) seems quite reasonable.Study design. The research of generationsʹ hardiness in 2009 and in 2019 with the aim of identifying its changes and regional specificities was completed. The description of changes in hardiness is presented on the example of a megalopolis and a regional center of the North-West of Russia.Participants. Sample: 769 people, including in 2009 — 362 people (40.6% of men, 59.4% of women) from 19 to 69 years old and in 2019 — 407 people (34.6% of men and 65.4% of women) from 27 to 82 years old.Measurements. We studied values using the Russian version of Maddi’s Hardiness Survey adapted by D.A. Leont’ev, E.I. Rasskazova (2006). Statistical processing of the research results was carried out with the help of Statistica 10.0 software package.Results. A significant changes of the hardiness in the population of the North-West of Russia over the past decade has been recorded. The increased hardiness is observed in representatives of the Post-war, Soviet, and Transitional generations, while a decrease in hardiness is found in the sample of the Post-Soviet generation. There are no differences in the generational dynamics of the resilience of residents of St. Petersburg and Arkhangelsk.Conclusions. Generational affiliation is one of the factors that mediate the dynamics of hardiness at various stages of a person’s life path.

The article presents the results of an empirical study aimed at analyzing hardiness of 14–17 year-olds with persistent illegal behavior (n = 118) in comparison with their peers who demonstrate conditionally normal behavior (n = 117). The assessment of hardiness was carried out with the use of the short version of the Hardiness Test by E. I. Rasskazova and E. N. Osin. The results show that adolescents with persistent illegal behavior are characterized by lower indicators of hardiness, in comparison with adolescents with conditionally normative behavior, and this trend is manifested both in the analysis of the total indicator and particular indicators of hardiness. The analysis of changes in the total and particular indicators of hardiness (performed with the cross-section method) identifies a trend associated with consistent increase in hardiness indicators among adolescents with persistent illegal behavior, while in adolescents form comparison group these indicators decrease. The analysis of gender differences allows us to establish that the trend to increasing hardiness in the group of adolescents with persistent illegal behavior is characteristic of girls, while the hardiness of boys who make up this group decreases as they grow up, as well as in their peers with conditionally normative behavior. The necessity of a differentiated approach to the psychological support of the personal development of boys and girls with persistent illegal behavior is discussed.
