The article provides a theoretical analysis of the problem of influence of the factor "complete / single-parent family" on intellectual and personal development of a child. It is noted that a family with a changed structure leaves an imprint on the child’s perception of a family and can affect his / her own family and parental attitudes in the future, which determines the relevance of this study. Differences in family representations among primary school children from complete and single-parent families have been empirically revealed. The number of associations on the theme of “family” is greater in children from complete families (but it falls during primary school age) than in children from incomplete (but it increases during primary school age). The qualitative characteristics of representations also have differences: in children from complete families, they primarily encompass family members, and in children from incomplete families – relations between them. The author comes to the conclusion that primary schoolchildren's ideas about the family can serve as an indicator of the family situation in which the child is growing, which is of interest, from a practical point of view as well.

The article analyzes theoretical and empirical approaches to the study of factors of destruction of emotional states in primary school age. The specifics of psycho-emotional disorders in childhood and the factors of its destruction are revealed. It is found that the frequent manifestation of disorders of the psycho-emotional sphere of children is the emergence of fears, and the fears of children are associated with frequent manifestations of anxiety, which are summarized in the anxiety as a personal trait. It is established that the factors of destruction of emotional states in childhood include a wide range of factors, including biological preconditions for the formation of disorders, characterological peculiarities of children (emotionality, vulnerability, impressiveness, insecurity, expression of self), negative influences of socio-political conditions of society, propaganda of violence by mass media. However, the main factor in the formation of any psycho-emotional disorders of children are the shortcomings of family interaction, the uncomfortable nature of relationships with parents, their use of inconsistent and authoritarian types of upbringing. The results of the research of the destruction of emotional states of primary schoolchildren with different types of parental attitudes are analyzed. It is determined that the emotional states of primary schoolchildren largely depend on the type of parental attitude. Excessive concentration on the child provokes the destruction of emotional states of primary school children, provoking anxiety and fears. Instead, the predominance of parental attitudes of the optimal type of emotional contact is expressed in the harmonious emotional states of children.

The article presents the results of a study of ideas about the family in primary schoolchildren of different ages. The respondents were 95 primary schoolchildren, students of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades of secondary schools. A free associative experiment was used as a research method. It was found that the content of the most common associations varies from one age group to another. During primary school age, the characteristic that children give to relationships between family members is transformed (“friendship” changes to “love”), the mention of “I” from the list of family members disappears, the frequency of use of generalizing categories (“relatives”, “kin”) increases. The results can be used by specialists working with children to assess the family situation in which the child grows, from the perspective of the experiences of the child.

Currently, a large number of studies of the impact of the family on the development of the child are recorded, while there are practically no studies of parental attitudes towards children with developmental disorders, including children with severe speech disorders. The purpose of the article is to describe the specifics of maternal attitudes to children of primary school age with severe speech disorders and to substantiate the directions and content of psychological and pedagogical work with this category of mothers. The research methodology is composed of scientific concepts reflecting the general and specific laws of the mental development of children, presented in the works of L.S. Vygotsky, A.N. Leontiev, V.V. Lebedinsky; studies by V.V. Tkacheva, characterizing the relationship of parents and children in families raising children with developmental disabilities; works by A.Y. Varga, A.S. Spivakovskaya, R.V. Ovcharova, Y.B. Hippenreuter, substantiating the significance of psychological support of the family to ensure the full mental and personal development of the child. The study involved 30 mothers raising primary school age children with severe speech disorders. The psychodiagnostic tool was the methodology for studying parental attitudes, developed by A.Y. Varga and V.V. Stolin, aimed at identifying the predominant type of parental attitudes towards the child; the methodology “Questionnaire of child-parental emotional interaction”, proposed by E.I. Zakharova, which allows assessing the severity of such indicators of parent-child interaction as sensitivity, emotional acceptance, behavioral manifestations. Research results. The peculiarities of maternal attitudes towards children of primary school age with severe speech disorders are described. It was established that mothers are characterized by a destructive attitude towards a child: the predominant types of parental relationship are “Authoritarian Hypersocialization” and “Little Loser”, which indicates the desire of mothers to exercise total control over the behavior of the child, based on the belief that the child is too small, immature, compared to peers, is not adapted to independent life. At the same time, the emotional interaction of mothers with children is characterized by insufficient expression of emotional acceptance, the ability to provide emotional support to the child. Conclusion. Based on the identified features of parental attitude to children with severe speech disorders, the authors proposed and substantiated a system of psychological and pedagogical work with mothers, which involves: informing parents about the features of mental and personal development of a child with severe speech disorder; mastering techniques of effective communication with the child; establishing a friendly parent-child relationship.

Maternal and children’s folklore is considered as one of the unique phenomena of Russian folk culture. Particular attention is paid to the fact that the genres of oral folk art not only lay the foundations for the transmission of spiritual traditions to subsequent generations, but also contribute to the formation of a child’s national identity. The definitions of “creative abilities” as a concept are given in relation to the primary school age, since at this stage in the child’s personality a number of properties that characterize him as a creator are manifested. It is proved that the use of examples from lullabies or legends, fairy tales, proverbs and riddles broadens the horizons of children, create patriotic feelings, awakens interest in History, Literature and develops speech. The former allows developing the creative abilities of primary schoolchildren.

The article provides a review of ideas about social intelligence and information about severity of its various components in primary school age. During this period, the development foundations are laid for the next age stages, and social intelligence is the foundation of personal development. The review given by the authors showed that at the beginning of primary school age, social intelligence is at a low or medium level of development. Throughout the entire age period, the development of individual components occurs heterochronously. The child is consistently mastering social skills and is better aware of himself; these tendencies are distorted by the excessive enthusiasm for computer games. The regulation of their emotions and social sensitivity are initially more characteristic of girls, at the end of the period – to the same or greater extent in boys whose development of the emotional component of social intelligence is slowed down. At the behavioral level, the underdevelopment of the social intelligence of younger students is manifested in the difficulties of adapting to school life and communicative problems. Thus, social intelligence developed in primary school age ensures the use of optimal behaviors in interaction with others, satisfaction with family and school life.
