EN Undoubtedly, both crisis situations and the resulting crises are particularly difficult events, which are defined as emergency situations. Moreover, a crisis situation may arise, inter alia, because a person disregards emerging threats; does not have the necessary competences to perform certain functions; inadeq- uately monitors changes in the environment; reacts incorrectly to new events that surprise him or her; makes wrong decisions, often not having enough information or, for example, being under strong time pressure; makes mistakes in the communication process. Hence, one of the most important tasks that a person undertakes in crisis situations is decision-making. They are characterised by the fact that they are made under stress, under time pressure, as well as having a high level of responsibility. These conditions can cause people to fall into all sorts of thinking traps, which in turn can contribute to both irrational behaviour and wrong decisions. As a consequence, this can lead to significant loss of life and material damage. Thus, soldiers and officers of various uniformed services should accurately assess the situations in which they find themselves and have the ability to foresee the consequences of their actions. Personnel selection is the most important stage on the way to the proper functioning of any organisation. Getting the right candidates and, in perspective, the members of the organisation will affect the effectiveness of the organisation in the future. This means that the selection of the right people for an organisa- tion, especially those responsible for security, cannot be based on randomness, but must be a choice that allows for the acquisition of personnel that meet precisely defined requirements. This article presents the psychological determi- nants of human reactions in crisis situations, concerning, among other things, personality, defence mechanisms or emotional intelligence, influencing the way people behave in crisis situations.
