estimate inadequately their occupational loading and underestimate the influence of the
organizational factors of metallurgical production.

The level of claims is reflected in the assessment of the labor importance. It is
also revealed in the reduction of satisfaction of the operators from this group with their
own activities in the conditions of a low objective estimation of the labor results. We
found an increase of the anxiety level among the “most successful” and the “least
successful” operators. It can be explained as follows: the anxiety level of the first group
operators increases due to the mobilization of the activities and the anxiety level of the
third group operators increases because of the non-optimality of the activities,
inadequate self-esteem and lack of the occupational adaptation.
We have established a satisfactory validity for the most used methods (not lower
than 0.7).
We cannot ignore a person`s attitude to the activity in the study of psychological
factors of the rolling mill operators` activities. It is also impossible to solve any
optimization problems of the operators` activities excluding these factors.
The color-association method usage allowed revealing deep and extramental
interaction components in a number of important factors and at the same time passing
the protective mechanisms of the verbal system of consciousness.
Thus, having limited the own research sphere of emotional aspects by the
psychological analysis frameworks of the operators` professional activities and mental
processes and states, which accompany these activities, we consider emotions on the
one hand as an indicator of the operator`s functional condition in the activity and on
the other hand as an indicator of the specialist`s attitude to his job and a set of
production factors.
