The paper examines the current problem of forming the ethnocultural competence of future teachers. The purpose of the study is to substantiate and test the original three-stage methodology of project creative activity, based on the study of ornaments of the indigenous peoples of Yugra, as a condition for forming the ethnocultural competence of future teachers. The methodological basis includes the competence approach, the method of project-based learning, the main area of application of which is the development of independence, creativity, and initiative of students through the organization of their own creative activity. The practical significance of the study lies in the fact that the stages of project-creative activity and the
formed ethnocultural competence of future teachers are considered. During the experiment, a creative project was carried out, which involved familiarization with traditional ornaments of the Khanty and Mansi, completing tasks on their deciphering and interpretation, independent creative work, and the use of Ob-Ugrian ornaments in practical activities to decorate household items. Expert and independent assessments during the experimental work confirmed the effectiveness of the applied methodology.

The article focuses on analyzing the peculiarities of organizing youth leisure in a metropolis. The materials of a sociological survey among young residents of the capital of Kazakhstan, Astana, reveal the specifics of the infrastructure of a large city and the features of the cultural and leisure activities of the young generation. A profound transformation of youth leisure practices associated with the modernization of public consciousness and changes in youth leisure expectations is shown. The range of leisure preferences of young Astana residents has been determined: in the structure of youth leisure, the rating of cultural and creative practices is decreasing, while that of cultural and consumer forms is increasing. The article briefly describes how
the entertainment segment is growing in Astana and outlines the technology used to organize cultural and leisure activities. The author’s attention is directed towards the technology of sociocultural animation, aiming to
humanize the free time of young people and create conditions for their self-realization and self-affirmation through sociocultural animation and leisure activities. Creating conditions for engagement of young people in
various spheres of social activity is the primary pedagogical meaning of sociocultural animation. The technology of sociocultural animation is most clearly manifested in the club work of youth leisure centers and additional
education. The author’s analysis of theoretical and applied aspects of youth leisure organization in a metropolis allowed to identify the specifics of the leisure time of the capital’s youth and the features of its cultural and leisure
practices. Among the specifics are unregulated and voluntary use of leisure time, which makes it possible to single out leisure as a separate social institution; a variety of forms of leisure activity, where new trends and hobbies appear along with traditional forms; features of the environment of youth leisure (in the company of friends, peers, outdoors); predominance of cultural and consumer practices in the structure of youth leisure. The strengthening of hedonistic components in the system of value-semantic attitudes of young people, the formation of a new social community oriented to the consumption of leisure services were revealed

The article is aimed at specialists in the field of mental health, practitioners, employees of rehabilitation centers, and students of psychological faculties.

Future specialists face special demands in the modern labor market, including high volitional qualities, the ability to overcome professional challenges, and emotional control in stressful situations. According to the article, a correlation was found between the level of stress resistance and the method of coping behavior in students. The authors analyzed theoretical approaches to the concepts of stress and stress resistance, coping behavior, and studied basic coping strategies. Psychological methods and techniques are employed
in the work to verify the reliability of the data, along with the methods of mathematical statistics. The study revealed the dynamics of changes in the level of stress during the academic period, the level of stress resistance,
and the primary coping strategies in students, as well as the correlation between the indicators. The article is intended for teachers of higher educational institutions and specialists interested in this problem.

Special attention is required in organizing the educational process for future doctors. Since doctors depending on the specifics of their work, experience various negative factors that not only affect their physical and mental performance but also their overall health. The above mentioned highlights the need to develop the psychophysical readiness of medical students for future professional activities as part of the studying process at a university. Organizing physical education in a way that takes into account the requirements for the work of medical workers can play a leading role in solving this problem. The Department of Physical Education at Surgut State University tested the professionally oriented technology for the formation of psychophysical readiness of medical students presented in the article. This technology can be recommended for specialists in the field of physical education and sports, as well as university teachers who organize the educational process in physical education and sports at the university.

The aim of the study is an expert assessment of the characteristics of motor activity of freestyle skiers in various sports disciplines. The results confirmed the various manifestations for coordination abilities (spatial orientation, maintaining balance, kinesthetic differentiation, complex motor reaction, agility), system-forming factors of motor activity (maintaining dynamic balance on a sliding surface when overcoming obstacles and in an unsupported state, body control while moving along the track, determining the optimal trajectory and speed of movement), technical and tactical components of sportsmanship (stability, variability, efficiency of technique, versatility of the athlete, tactical thinking, technical complexity), as well as their influence on the sports result in a certain freestyle discipline.

The etiology of idiopathic scoliosis remains insufficiently studied despite advances in modern science and a significant amount of research. Scoliosis of the spinal column disrupts the functional connections between different parts of the body, necessitating the formation of new compensatory mechanisms
to maintain and control balance. Idiopathic scoliosis has a considerable impact on the spatiotemporal parameters of human motor activity, including posture, gait, and walking speed. Changes in kinematic and kinetic characteristics during walking are influenced both by the spinal deformity itself and by the compensatory adaptations that the body must employ to maintain stability. In this context, the study of transitional processes
between static (standing) and dynamic (walking) states in patients with idiopathic scoliosis is particularly relevant, as this transition requires special coordination and adaptation of biomechanical mechanisms.
