Abstract
The study examines the distinguishing features of socio-psychological adaptation of students in the Industrial University of Tyumen in the context of physical training in association with the satisfaction with the choice of the direction of general physical training. The features of socio-psychological adaptation are assessed by the Rogers-Dymond Test of Personal Adjustment and examined. The study reveals the relationship between the characteristics of socio-psychological adaptation and satisfaction with the choice of direction of general physical training. Students’ satisfaction with their choice in the process of physical training shows a pronounced positive correlation with self-acceptance, internality, and emotional comfort. Dissatisfaction with the choice strongly correlates with escapism (avoidance of problems). As a result, the students satisfied with their choice are found to take on responsibility more often, show greater self-acceptance and acceptance of others, and more frequently experience emotional comfort and desire to dominate.
