LIFESTYLE AND CAPACITY FOR WORK OF FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY

Modern first-year students find themselves in new social and psycho-physiological conditions, in unusual conditions of dynamic educational and scientific activities. Way of life of this social group is a major determinant of its health’s state. Healthy lifestyle gives a positive effect on the body of the young person and the properties of his personality. Lifestyle diagnosis of first-year students of the Pedagogical University and the Polytechnic University has shown that it cannot be called healthy. Girls have a short night's sleep, low physical activity, do not obey regime of study, rest, diet, they drink alcohol and occasionally smoke. The researching of mental capacity was conducted using the test ?Schulte’s tables?. We have determined that the students biologists have a good first phase of the performance and it was the best result. All of first-year students have low psychological stability to perform a given job.
