| Summary: | Increasing the adaptive resources of first-year students is especially important, because it makes it faster and easier to get involved in the learning process and start mastering professional skills. We have considered adaptation from the point of view of the meaningful sphere of person and ontological security. We used «Method of Research of Students Adaptability in the Higher Educational Establishment» (T.D. Dubovitskaya, A.V. Krylova), «Personality life position» (PLP) (D.A. Leontiev), «Test of meaning-life orientations» (MLO) (D.A. Leontiev), psychometric method «Ontological security» (OS(PM)) (N.V. Kopteva). Significant positive correlations were found between general meaningfulness of life, general ontological security and level of adaptability. The most significant medium strength correlations with the scale «Adaptation to the study group» were obtained with the following scales: «Process of life» of the MLO, «Harmony with Life» of the PLP, «Vital contacts with the world» of the OS(PM). For the scale «Adaptation to the educational activity» medium strength significant correlations were obtained with the scales: «Purpose in life» and «Locus of control - I» of the MLO. In the discussion of the results we indicate the consistency of our results with the available results. It confirms the importance of using meaningful education methods.
