Socialization of collective relationships of first-year students during the adaptation period

Abstract

The article examines current (problematic) aspects, the emergence of collective relationships among first-year students during their initial, adaptive stay in an educational institution. The entry of a freshman into primary professional socialized activity is a new social experience, where the adept will have to face a new educational system, with a large amount of academic workload, and be able to join a new team. First-year students of two Nizhny Novgorod universities took part in the methodological study: (NNGASU, VSUVT), where, using an anonymous questionnaire, they could express their subjective opinion about the most vital moments of the adaptation period. 

In the adaptive period of learning, socially significant interests are the dynamic processes of structuring collective relationships in the study group, which affect mental health, stress, and academic performance.
