Psychological and Pedagogical Conditions of Forming Stress Management Skills in Future Officers

The article analyzes the psychological and pedagogical conditions for developing stress management skills among future officers. It highlights self-regulation under emotional pressure, responsibility, time constraints, and uncertainty. The theoretical discussion draws on cognitive appraisal, emotion regulation, and adaptive coping. A pedagogical approach is proposed that combines early recognition of stress responses, cognitive reappraisal, emotional regulation, prioritization of actions, and constructive peer support. Scenario-based exercises, reflective journals, and psychological training elements are described. The proposals are theoretical and methodological and require empirical validation.
