Manifestation of Emotional States in Pedagogical Activity: Characteristics and Implications

Abstract

In the conditions of the changes that are taking place, more and more high demands are placed not only on
the professional knowledge, skills, and qualifications of the teacher, but also on the level of his personal selfdevelopment, psychological state. Complex socio-psychological problems associated with economic issues,
including low wages, inadequate technical equipment in schools, as well as a decrease in the prestige of the
teaching profession make teacher labor particularly emotionally difficult. Professional duty forces teachers to
make informed decisions, to be nervous, to overcome disappointment, and to restrain negative emotions.
However, the external restriction of emotions does not cause calmness and does not contribute to
psychological-physical health. It is known that negative emotional states of teachers lead to a decrease in the
effectiveness of education, increase the likelihood of conflict situations in teachers, lead to the emergence and
strengthening of negative features in the structure of character and professional qualities, undermine health,
and lead to the general dissatisfaction of the teacher with his profession. The article talks about these issues.
