The subject of this study is the information and psychological stability of police officers in the face of negative information and psychological influences, primarily related to the dissemination of false information (fake). The relevance of this topic is driven by the high level of regulatory responsibility, cognitive stress, and targeted destructive influence faced by police officers. The key mechanism of this influence is the presentation of false information as absolute truth, which can lead to confusion, emotional pressure, and the adoption of erroneous decisions. The purpose of this work is to provide a theoretical basis for the structure of an individual's information and psychological resilience and to develop a model. The research objective in this context is to identify the personal and cognitive characteristics of employees that enhance or, conversely, reduce their susceptibility to false messages. The methodological basis is based on a systematic, structural-functional, and interdisciplinary approach, as well as a theoretical analysis of domestic psychological concepts of information and psychological security, stability, and impact. Comparative analysis and generalization of scientific data were used. As a result of the study, the content of the phenomenon of information and psychological stability as a multi-level personal formation, which is not reduced to individual skills of critical assessment of information, has been clarified. The key structural components of stability have been identified and substantiated: value-semantic, cognitive, emotional-volitional, and behavioral. A theoretical model of information and psychological stability of police officers has been proposed. The position that the behavioral component should be considered as an objective indicator of the success of perceptual and cognitive processing of messages has been substantiated. The scope of application of the results covers the system of professional training and psychological support for employees and cadets of educational organizations of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia. The novelty of the work lies in the systematization and integration of disparate theoretical approaches into a unified model, and the findings create a theoretical basis for subsequent empirical research and the development of applied programs to enhance the resilience of police officers.
