Abstract
For the first time the results of social and psychological characteristics of the first-year students were obtained. We performed the estimation of adaptation potential of the first-year students during their studies at the university and depending of the fields of their study (humanitarian, scientific or physico-mathematical). The peculiarities of motivation of the goal achievement need in the first-year students of different fields of study were determined. It was found that most of first-year students (53 %) had an average needs-based motivation and were characterized by low adaptive capacity (66,6 %) and low-neuro mental stability (41,6 %). During the research we used multilevel personality questionnaire "Adaptivity" of A.G. Maklakov and S.V. Chermyanin and test-questionnaire "Goal achievement need" of Y.M. Orlov
