Objectives To single out from among the parameters of self-government assessment those that can be considered as factors of stress resistance of healthy people in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods The methodological complex includes the author's socio-demographic questionnaire, J.Kuhl’s and A.Fuhrman’s Self-Government Test, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, and Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen,Kamarck,Mermelstein,1983). The study involved 1,551 non-covid people, of whom 16.3% were men and 83.7% were women, the average age of the respondents was 33.81±11.72 living in Russia. From April to December 2020, 1,356 respondents were surveyed, and from January to November 2021 - 195 people. One-factor analysis of variance and correlation analysis were used. Results Significant differences were manifested for the scales of Affective self-control(F=3.633;p=0.001), Initiative(F=3.656;p=0.001), Volitional activity(F=7.086;p=0.000), Ability to concentrate(F=12.789;p=0.000), Orientation to action after failures(F=12.622;p=0.000), Congruence to one's own feelings(F=4.429;p=0.000), Orientation to actions in anticipation of success(F= 2,335;p=0.030). The indicators of the structure of self-regulation (self-determination, self-motivation, self-relaxation), not significantly changing their values in the conditions of the pandemic, have demonstrated significant inverse correlation with perception of stress, state-trait anxiety(p<0.01). Indicators of cognitive self-control also remain stable under the conditions of the pandemic and are significantly negatively correlated with indicators of stress, personal and situational anxiety(p<0.01). Conclusions The results obtained allow us to talk about the possibility of protection of psychological well-being of non-covid persons in the conditions of the COVID-19 pandemic, in the presence of high values on the scales of Self-regulation (Self-determination, Self-motivation, Self-relaxation), as well as Cognitive self-control as components of self-management.
