Introduction. The specialists of “person to person” type occupations should possess the ability to interact with members of the activity – other people, to build up with them the positive relationship, possess empathy and responsiveness, ready to cooperation and assistance. Similar qualities do not arise spontaneously. The formation and development of these qualities is considerably influenced by family, school, and experience of communication with different representatives of society as well as vocational training which is received by experts in higher education institutions.The aim of the research is to conduct a comparative analysis of the interaction positions among students – future physicians and specialists in the field of psychological and pedagogical support (teachers, social educators, psychologists, etc.).Methodology and research methods. The set of theoretical and empirical methods based on the principles of general scientific methodology was used in the research: analysis, synthesis, generalization of source materials corresponding to the stated topic; testing, questioning, data collection, statistical processing of data. The authors’ questionnaires were used as a diagnostic tool. The processing was carried out by using the methods of mathematical statistics. Results and scientific novelty. The positions of students’ interaction and commitment to socio-pedagogical stereotypes are revealed on the sample of 362 students of Ivanovo State Medical Academy, Moscow University for the Humanities and Cherepovets State University.The results of the study provide an opportunity to assess the impact of the irritability factor and stereotypic representations of students on interaction strategy chosen by them. It is established that future teachers and psychologists, however slightly, but experience the feeling of irritability towards other people more often than medical students. On the contrary, the range of irritants among future physicians is wider. The set of stereotypes in different groups of students is varied as well. High level of irritability promotes acceptance by the person either acceptance of the coercion position or manipulation position. The irritability and stereotypic thinking due to positions of coercion and non-interference is demonstrated. The positive correlation of coercive positions with such factors of irritability towards people as uncooperativeness, sluggishness, impulsiveness, etc. was found.Practical significance. The analysis revealed a considerably high percentage of students who can take versatile positions, e.g. a position of coercion and a position of non-violence. As a result, it proves the importance of carrying out additional special work with pupils on goal-oriented formation of non-violent interaction skills. The research findings give the chance to build such work differentially taking into account the specifics of the directions and specialties of preparation.
