Abstract
The article presents the results of the study of the structure of adaptation readiness of students at various levels of higher education – Bachelor’s and Master’s programs. It provides a rationale for studying adaptation readiness through the unity of psychophysiological, psychological, and socio-psychological components. It has been found that the most pronounced component both at bachelor’s and master’s level is a socio-psychological one. The statistics has shown that master’s degree students have more pronounced psychophysiological and socio-psychological components compared to bachelor’s degree students, while a psychological component of adaptation readiness is at the same level at all stages of education. Within the framework of forming components of adaptation readiness of students the recommendations for university lecturers and psychologists have been provided.
