Study of the effectiveness of using the internet marathon in the development of emotional stability of adolescents in distance learning conditions

The relevance of the study lies in the search for methods and means of overcoming stress among students in connection with the transition of schools to new models of organizing the educational process. As a hypothesis, the influence of the Internet marathon on the development of emotional stability of adolescents was put forward. The study involved adolescents aged 14-15 years (N=95), of whom 56% were female. The teenagers were divided into two groups – control and experimental in order to study the influence of Internet marathon classes on the emotional stability of adolescents. For diagnosis, we used the method of self-assessment of mental states (according to G. Eysenck), the method of assessing mental activation, interest, emotional tone, tension and comfort (N.A. Kurgansky, T.A. Nemchin) and the questionnaire “Style of self-regulation of behavior” (V.I. Morosanova). As a result of comparing averages using the Mann-Whitney U test, it was revealed that teenagers who took part in the Internet marathon have higher rates of emotional stability, that is, they have decreased rates of frustration, aggressiveness, rigidity and tension.
