 Despite a significant number of scientific works devoted to the topic of mental disorders in students, the issue of structural-dynamic features and clinical polymorphism of these condi- tions is not sufficiently disclosed. Purpose: based on the analysis of clinical-psychopathological and pathopsychological features of states of mental exhaustion in junior medical students, to form their typology and establish structural-dynamic features. Methods that were used: clinical-psychopathological, pathopsychological and clinical-statistical. According to the results of the clinical-psychopathological and pathopsychological analysis of the states of mental exhaustion, several clinical variants of the phenomenon under study were identified in representatives of the formed contingent of junior medical students. In particular, maladaptive, confrontational, demotivational, hyperanxious and somatoform variants of the state of mental exhaustion were identified. For the first year students, the most typical were maladaptive and hyperanxious variants — 11 (25.0 %) and 15 (31.1 %) students, respectively; for the second year students — confrontational and demotivational — 16 (33.3 %) and 14 (29.2 %) students, respectively; for the third year students — confrontational, demotivational and hyperanxious variants — 20 (26.7 %), 25 (33.3 %) and 15 (20.0 %) students, respectively. A typology of states of mental exhaustion in junior medical students was revealed, five clinical variants of the phenomenon under study were identified and described. It has been established that the pathogenesis of the identified variants of mental exhaustion is reflected in their clinical content and intimately related to the personal characteristics of students.
Key words mental exhaustion, emotional burnout, maladaptation, students, psychotherapy.
