| Abstract: | The aim of the article is to empirically measure the possibilities of using virtual simulations to train engineering troops to work in the field. A set of test methods was used for diagnostics, as well as observation and formative experiment. Similar dynamics of the levels of activity and cognitive components of readiness for work in the field were revealed in the experimental group (EG) and control group (CG). In both groups, the significance indicators of the Wilcoxon test are at p=0.01 (T=211; T=198; T=201; T=209). Simulation training proved to be quite effective in stabilizing risk-taking and anxiety among engineering troops, which is confirmed by Wilcoxon tests at p=0.01 (T=178; T=169). No significant differences were found in the dynamics of the teamwork skills (T=196; T=181). Indicators of the ability to adhere to the norms of professional ethics did not change in both groups (T=299; T=309). Therefore, the positive psychological role of virtual simulators for the readiness to work in the field can be stated. The obtained results determine the foundation for optimizing the strategies and tactics of military training for work in the field, taking into account the capabilities of the modern information environment. |
