Abstract

The authors analyse psychological problems of people engaged in extreme sports based on the example of diving. The results of the empirical research of behavioural characteristics of divers during their training were presented. A scheme of the standardised observation was given, allowing identifying athletes with lower neuropsychological stability in the initial stages of training. It is shown that psychological support of divers during training increases their involvement in activities and contributes to the improvement of psychodiagnostic indicators.
