Abstract

Social distancing, social isolation and self-isolation, which swept the world in 2020, had a serious impact on the perception of the surrounding reality by an individual. Behavioral structures and individual behavior have changed, especially in relation to individual's own health. Studies by foreign authors prove that in many respects physical health during the pandemic turned out to depend on psychological factors, changes in people's habits. The pandemic period opened up completely new problems for Russian society that had not been given so much attention previously. Many of the problems turned out to be insufficiently or completely unexplored. One of such problems was the lack of readiness of the social system for new challenges; in particular, the optimal elements of self-preservation behavior of Russians were not determined. The population of Russia showed a clear unpreparedness both for the very fact of self-isolation and for effective self-preservation behavior. The COVID-19 pandemic had a huge impact on the exacerbation of chronic diseases, the constant postponement of their treatment. The level of responsibility for oneself and one's own health are key indicators that interest researchers in the problem of self-preservation behavior during the pandemic. The aim of the study was to analyze the theory of the question of changing aspects of self-preservation behavior in difficult life periods of an individual. To achieve the goal, the following tasks are set: to study self-preservation behavior as a survival factor, to consider self-preservation behavior in a social context, to highlight the key features of self-preservation behavior during the COVID-19 pandemic. An analysis of scientific literature and secondary analysis of research were used as the following research methods. The results of the study are generalized data and ideas about the need to study the social management of self-preservation behavior during the pandemic. These results can be applied in the development of programs of sociological and psychological research, monitoring to study the characteristics of self-preservation behavior of individual socio-demographic groups of the population.
