Аннотация:

 

Article represents the review of empirical researches (2000-2013) based on the authoring concept of psychology of intergroup adaptation (PIA) in the organizations.

Some results of study of groups with different status of 45 crews of the ships of Navy of Russia (1129 servicemen), 7 rural schools of the Moscow region (351 people), 6 trade enterprises, productions, services sectors (140 employees) are provided. The system and situational analysis (the retrospective standardized interview), questionnaires "Diagnostics of social and psychological adaptation" of K. Rogers, R. Daymond, "An assessment of organizational culture" of K.Kuinn and R. Cameron, "A motivational profile" of P. Martina and Sh. Richie, Cynefin platform expert valuation of  situations of administrative activities of D. Snouden are used. Results were processed by mathematical and statistic analysis methods, the principles of boolean algebra were used.

It is proved that in the majority of the organizations the subculture of the hierarchical relations and focus inside the organization dominate.  The structure of values refers to the mental sphere of "the Russian model of governance".  The cognitive component of intergroup interactions is a basis of genesis of PIA.  The higher leveled in semantic space PIA psychological mechanisms correspond to simpler administrative situations of the Cynefin platform:  situation "Order" – the psychological mechanism of joint activities, "Orderliness" – organizational identification, "Complexity" – intergroup non-adaptability.

The results of research can be put into a modern social and psychological basis for control of the organizations of different fields. To optimize the management it is expedient to use relevant social and cognitive indicators: coefficient of adequacy perception of a PIA situation (KVsPIA) by its participants, design of PIA, psychological mechanisms in the organization. Results of correlation of administrative situations and the PIA psychological mechanisms can be used as an additional technique of diagnostics of the organization, based on traditional methods.
