Application of new approaches to processing the results of “SAN” test card: diagnostic / prognosis studies. Report 1. General properties and vector approach

INTRODUCTION. In the practice of self-assessment of the state of sailors and athletes, a well-proven simple and informative test “SAN” (“Well-being, Activity, Mood”) is often used, which does not require a lot of time for its implementation, but allows indirectly (qualitatively and quantitatively) to characterize the severity and development of asthenic reactions (the appearance of fatigue) at certain stages of the study. OBJECTIVE. Analysis of some aspects of the application of the self-assessment card “SAN” and research opportunities in describing the results of its application. MATERIALS AND METHODS. This article examines issues related to the use of the widely used “Well-Being, Activity, and Mood” questionnaire. The authors use practical examples to examine possible approaches to assessing scoring scales, as well as the test card as a multi-criteria task. RESULTS. The article presents solutions to this multi-criteria diagnostic problem based on vector algebra, a generalized criterion, structural analysis, and the Harrington function. DISCUSSION. The use of these methods in modeling the experiment allows for a more objective assessment of the level of self-assessment of the state of the subject, and also for an objective ranking of observations, both in the assessed group and in the dynamics at the stages of the experiment. CONCLUSION. The SAN self-assessment test has some features that are currently not considered but influence the final assessment of test results. Applying a vector approach to the SAN test may yield more objective diagnostic information when analyzing its results.
