Objective: to assess the value of the psychoemotional state of pregnant women in the development of a prolonged second period of labor. Material and methods. 76 pregnant women were examined. In 26 women, childbirth was complicated by a prolonged second period of labor, and they constituted the main group. The control group included 50 women who had physiologic birth. The psychoemotional state was analyzed using the Spielberg test and the test of a pregnant woman's attitudes. Results. There were some differences between the groups in terms of the tendency in the levels of personal anxiety and occurrence of high situational anxiety. The Spielberg test has revealed more «positive» affirmative answers than «negative» ones. 46.1 % women in the main group do not «feel a sense of inner satisfaction», which is statistically significantly higher than in the control group - 24.0 % (p = 0.04). In the main group, in contrast to the control group, the women are more often not «worried about possible failures». During the study of the types of the psychological component of the gestational dominant, mixed types were mainly observed, and the distribution in the groups did not have statistically significant differences. The women with a prolonged second period of labor had a tendency to form the predominantly euphoric type of the psychological component of the gestational dominant. Conclusion. During pregnancy, the patients with a prolonged second period formed a coping strategy in the form of a predominantly euphoric attitude to pregnancy associated with elevated situational anxiety.
