Based on the experience of diagnostic examinations of other components of rehabilitation potential (psychophysiological, professional and pedagogical, social and environmental), the indications and indicators for complex express-diagnostics were selected, the optimized structure of which formed the basis of the corresponding methodological tool. Cognitive, affective and conative representants were identified as structural elements of the psychological component of the rehabilitation potential of the personality. Methods. For the purpose of approbation and formalization of the methodology, 345 respondents aged 18 to 42 years, 54% female and 46% male, took part in the study. The methods used as a basis for validation were the test "Assessment of personality adaptability" (S.I. Yakovenko), J. Endicott quality of life assessment scale, I. Schuller, A. Komuniani optimism and activity scale, "Self-assessment of conflict" test (A.Y. Antsupov, A.I. Shipilov), "Resilience test" by S. Muddy, express-diagnostics of cognitive abilities (G.S. Nikiforov). Results. The obtained instrument was tested for reliability, the optimal number of indicators presupposes 22 items. Based on confirmatory factor analysis, they are combined into a three-factor model, which has high values of verification indicators of compliance of this model with the data. High indicators of convergent and divergent validity were obtained by comparing the data with the results of existing standardized methods. Discussion. Three factors in the model of the psychological component of the rehabilitation potential of the individual are represented by the factor "Behavior", including "Adaptability", "Quality of life" and "Optimism", the factor "Emotionality", including "Intrapersonal conflict" and "Neurosensory stability" and the factor "Cognition", including "Logic", "Memory" and "Attention". The levels of assessment of both individual factors and the complex indicator of the psychological component of the rehabilitation potential of the individual are identified, which allows us to speak about the suitability of this tool for use by specialists when working with individuals with disabilities acquired during combat operations and special military operations.
