Biography

In 1947-1949, Yuri Orlov studied in Leningrad at the S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy. However, due to his poor health, he was expelled from it.[2]

After that, Orlov entered the Chelyabinsk Pedagogical Institute with a degree in history. For three years, from 1949 to 1952, he completed a five-year course in absentia and specially developed a well-thought-out "examiner's behavior control system".[3] Simultaneously with his studies, Orlov taught history, psychology and logic at school.

From 1953 to 1956 he studied at the Institute of Philosophy of the Academy of Sciences of the Soviet Union in full-time postgraduate study. He received his Ph.D. degree in philosophy for his dissertation on the dialectics of relative and absolute truth in knowledge (scientific advisor - Tavanets[3]).

From 1969 to 1971, Yuri Mikhailovich lectured on the theory of experiment and mathematical statistics in psychology at the Institute for Advanced Studies of Psychologists at the Academy of Pedagogical Sciences. His lectures were popular with the audience,[4] his lectures (compared to the lectures of mathematicians professors from Moscow State University) were clearer, more specific and practical for students of psychologists who strove to master mathematical statistics in psychology.[5] As a result, Orlov was invited to cooperate as a professor.

From 1973 to 2000, Yuri Orlov worked at the Moscow Medical Academy named after Sechenov and headed the Department of Pedagogy and Medical Psychology there. He successfully defended his doctoral dissertation in psychology ("Necessity-motivational factors of the effectiveness of educational activities of university students").
