The aim of the article is to present the results of empirical study on the peculiarities of the manifestation of confidence and psychological conditions of its development in the “doctor-patient” system.
Methods. The following methods were used: empirical method to study the manifestation of patient’s confidence in a doctor – “Methodology for assessing confidence / suspicion of an individual in other people” (adapted by O. Savchenko, V. Petrenko); in order to research the ability to take risks in interpersonal communication – the technique “Personal decision-making factors”; to identify strategies of self-presentation of doctors – the methodology “Strategies of self-presentation” (S. Lee, B. Quigley); mathematical and statistical methods of data processing.
The results of the research. The research has proved that patients show a high level of trust in doctors: the subjects are able to form stable positive relationships with other people, interact constructively with others in specific situations, they are confident in other people, and are able to rely on them in the process of interaction. The psychological conditions of confidence development in the “doctor-patient” system have been empirically investigated. According to the data obtained, the self-confidence of patients appears at an average level: in general, they trust their feelings, experiences, logical conclusions, but, at the same time, they may sometimes have doubts about their own competence, they do not always believe in their own strength, significance, value. It has been established that the studied patients have a high level of willingness to take risks in interpersonal communication, that is, they are ready to take a certain risk by establishing confidence in another person. Peculiarities of self-presentation among doctors have been studied. Among the studied doctors, the strategy of “Attractive behavior” is dominant.
Conclusion. According to the results of the study, the assumption that the development of confidnce in the “doctor-patient” system is determined by a complex of psychological conditions (self-confidence, willingness to take risks, the effectiveness of the strategy of self-presentation in communication) has been confirmed.
