Abstract
Personal readiness is a diagnostic framework that relies on the following structural components: motivational-value, cognitive, operational-activity, and reflective-evaluative. This article provides a theoretical analysis of the development of students’ personal readiness for professional activity in Russia’s new frontier regions. Providing these new regions with qualified speech therapists is a strategic priority, directly impacting the social well-being of citizens. Since the frontier regions are in close proximity to the special military operation zone, therapists often find their roles expanding to include both speech correction and psychological aid. The experiment highlighted the personal readiness of pre-service speech therapists for professional activities in Russia’s frontier regions, making it possible to design a roadmap to help students acquire the resilience and professional skills needed for work in high-stress, volatile settings.
