Today, the nurse has to carry out treatment-and-prophylactic tasks, to develop a plan of measures for the implementation of nursing care, to evaluate the effectiveness of the provision of care, to be able to organize emergency care and disease prevention. Therefore, the nurses need to have their own behavior in different situations, to be able to consciously manage their actions, conditions and motives.
The aim of the study – to analyze the formation of volitional self-regulation of nurses according to the duration of their professional activity.
Materials and Methods. 62 nurses of Barsk Central District Hospital of Vinnytsia region were questioned with the help of A.V. Zvierkov and E.V. Eidman test questionnaire.
Results. A high score on the general scale (12 and above) was established in study groups 2 and 3, which characterizes medical staff with 6–20 years of experience as emotionally mature, active, independent. A low score (11 and below) was observed in nurses of the study groups 1 and 4. This indicates that nurses who have just started their professional activity and who have worked for over 20 years are sensitive, emotionally unstable, unsure of themselves. They have low reflexivity, and the general background of activity is usually reduced. They are characterized by impulsivity and instability of intentions. They also have a spontaneity and impulsiveness, low ability to build relationships with other people.
Conclusions. Medical staff with 6–20 years of experience are characterized by high levels of willed self-regulation with marked persistence and self-control. Nurses whose length of professional work is short (up to 5 years) or, conversely, significant (over 20 years) are characterized by low levels of willed self-regulation.
