WBС Formula as an Indicator of the Adaptation Status of Rural and Urban Residents

The paper shows the opportunities of using WBC formula to evaluate the adaptation status of urban and rural residents to the complex of socio-economic and environmental conditions of the region. It was found that the age of the second physiological chiasm of Oryol region’s children accounts for a period of 5–6 years, which cor- responds to the generally accepted standards. Physiological highly adaptive responses were recorded among 47.4% of adolescents, 67% of rural and 36.7% of urban residents.
