After graduation from the Yerevan State Medical Institute in 1961, she began her professional career as a psychiatrist in the psychiatric hospital of Ijevan (Armenia).

      A. Tadevosyan is the direct organizer and participant of the work on rendering help to victims of the 1988 Spitak earthquake in Armenia. Since 1989 for many years she was the organizer and Head of the “Stress” Center. The term “Stressology” belongs to her. A Tadevosyan in the most difficult conditions that prevailed at that time in Armenia, created a new service, thereby ensuring the development of stressology in Armenia and determining the priority of this direction not only in the extreme crisis situation. The most important aspect of A. Tadevosyan’s activity was the aspect of developing and introducing a new field of medicine – stressology to students, clinical residents and doctors. For these purposes she wrote a monograph (as the first text-book) “STRESSOLOGY – as a field of medicine on the problem of mental trauma and post-traumatic health disorders”. In 1996 in St. Petersburg A. Tadevosyan was awarded the M. V. Lomonosov Gold Medal for her contribution to education and solving problems on human security and life.

Tadevosyan conducted training cycles with rescuers and was awarded a commemorative medal from Hungarian Ministry of Civil Protection. A Tadevosyan is a participant of the Geneva Initiative on Reforms in Psychiatry in 1991–1992 and attendee of many World Congresses.

      Life expectance of the male population, although traditionally lagging behind the female population for 4–6 years, is steadily increasing in all developed countries, reaching in some cases, as in Japan, 85 years. Therefore, the problem of male general, mental and sexual longevity acquires special significance, which has been repeatedly emphasized in international forums held under the aegis of WHO. Due to this, the monograph prepared by A. Tadevosyan and A. Muradyan is, undoubtedly, an actual and timely study and generalization of the authors’ many years of scientific and therapeutic activity. Especially I would like to note the interdisciplinary approach, originally laid in the basis of this publication, as one of the authors is a recognized specialist in psychiatry, and the second – in urology, sexopathology and normal sexology.

      Unlike the generally accepted approaches that primarily appeal to the biological patterns of the functioning of the organism and the individual, the main accent of the presentation is deliberately shifted by the authors to the sphere of psychosocial problems of health and longevity. For a long time, medicine and psychology were strongly drawn towards describing some kind of average and even asexual personality. At the beginning of the 20th century, this tradition was violated by psychoanalysts Helen Deutsch and Karen Horney, who first prepared works devoted to the specifics of female psychology. On the Soviet space this topic was highlighted in the monograph of Abram Svyadoshch “Women’s Sexual Pathology”, which became a medical bestseller and survived several reprints. However, so far there are not so many systematic works in which an attempt is made to penetrate deeply into the inner mental world of men. It is this penetration that characterizes the peer-reviewed monograph analyzing the links between the neurophysiological and psychosocial mechanisms of male sexual activity, both in norm and in pathology.
