Correlation Between the System of Values and the Stressful Factors (Anxiety Level) Among the Group of Georgian Soldiers

Abstract

The anxiety level and the system of values have been studied with help of the situational anxiety test (V. Norakidze, in I) and the scale of values (Rokich, in 2) among 180 Georgian soldiers. As a basis to this investigation there served a preliminary supposition that social problems, existing in the country, experiencing hardships at the early stages of if its independence, would reveal very high anxiety level and a motley spectrum of the scale of values among the soldiers to be investigated. The results of the study showed an absence of the extreme high anxiety level. They also showed a system of values, not very relevant to military persons - preference to those ones, which (as the examined persons thought) would guarantee for them a comfortable life; love, good friends, happy family life. On the contrary, such values, as discipline, active and productive life, service and the like were disregarded.
