Zvereva. [A polymodal approach in experimental research on cognitive performance in pediatric clinical psychology]

Abstract:
Children with anomalies develop in special, peculiar way, so diagnostic process requires special methods. Paper describes a considerable amount of diagnostic procedures, available for clinical and special psychologists to appraise memory, perception, attention, ect. Special tools should exclude possibility of overearning and make it possible to examine true state of child’s condition without psychological and teacher’s achievements. Polymodal approach is based on tactile, stereognostic and odor sense testing, and may be used for separate as well as multimodal diagnostics. Presented system is based on psychiatric observation of unstable, ambiguous reactions on different stimulus among schizophrenia children. Experiment, involving presented method, is although discussed.
