摘要

The article presents the results of the study of the personal socio-psychological features in the bailiff service officers. The study involved 675 bailiff executors, 410 men (60.7%) and 265 women (39.3%) aged 21 to 59 years. In our study, we used a number of diagnosis tools, such as MMPI - a multifactorial questionnaire for the personality study, Brief Indicative Selection Test developed by V.N. Buzin and E.F. Wonderlic, K. Leonhard - N. Shmishek diagnostic test to determine character accentuations, the projective technique "House-Tree-Person" by J. Book, as well as observations and interviews. Our study revealed mean indicators of intellectual development level related to the range of values "above average", absence of pronounced character accentuations with a tendency to hypertension and demonstrativeness and risks of a tendency to depression and rigidity. The analysis showed the relationship of certain characteristics to the subjects’ age and gender. Factor analysis identified the major social and psychological personality traits of bailiffs which are the most significant for their professional activities. The study results can be used for professional psychological selection of bailiff service officers, their psychological support and the development of techniques in order to prevent burnout syndrome and professional deformation.
