The psychological resilience of the future teacher in changing conditions and stressful situations is an important quality that reduces the risks of professional burnout and deformation. The issue under discussion is focused on solving the current scientific problem – the study of the mechanisms, factors and conditions for adapting the future teacher in the VUCA-world: the authors present results of a psychological examination of students of a pedagogical university in the conditions of quarantine measures. The aim of the study was to assess the adaptive potential of students in conditions of forced distance learning; formation of ideas about personal characteristics contributing to adaptation of future teachers. The study involved 143 students studying in the areas of «Pedagogical Education», «Psychological and Pedagogical Education» aged 18 to 22 years. Monitoring was carried out through a diagnostic cross-section followed by data processing using mathematical statistics methods. The study made it possible to describe the personal profiles of students, characterize the psychological mechanisms of adaptation to the current situation, reveal the level of stress of students in pandemic conditions, and assess the potential risks to the psychological health and comfort of students. The study showed: the sample as a whole is characterized by quite high adaptive potential (students showed high indicators of resilience and moderate manifestations of stress, most of them had a balanced personal profile, which indicated personal resilience); personal characteristics affect the mechanism of the adaptation process, forming links with the symptom complex of resilience and level of stress; personal rigidity (accentuation) leads to the formation of typical rigid cognitive attitudes and behavioral patterns, which do not contribute to adaptation in changing conditions, negatively affecting resilience and increasing stress. The obtained data allow predicting the risks to the psychological health and comfort of students, more effectively planning and implementing psychological prevention and support for students during their studies at the university. The revealed trends make it possible to note personal flexibility as a key factor of adaptation and stress resistance.
