Personal Security of the Population of the Khabarovsk Region
The purpose of this article is to determine the theoretical significance of personal and social security of the population, as well as to identify factors and features of the formation of a subjective feeling of personal security among the population of the border region. The empirical basis of the analysis was the data of a sociological study of the population of the border regions of Russia. The main analysis methods are frequency data analysis and regression analysis. The relationship between some socio-demographic indicators and a sense of satisfaction with the personal security of the population was revealed—the higher the level of education of the population and the higher their assessment of their financial situation, the higher the population assesses satisfaction with their personal security. The regression analysis made it possible to identify factors that can influence the formation of a subjective feeling of satisfaction with the personal security of the population of the border region. The identified factors were characterized as “general” and “specific”. The first group included such factors as institutional and interpersonal trust, as well as satisfaction of their job and their marital status. The second group included such a factor as the level of satisfaction with the ability of the population to observe their national customs/traditions.
