Based on the study of K. Bart’s “Early Diagnostics of Underperformance in Schooling at Preschool and Primary School Age” involving similar works by other German specialists of different profiles, the article analyzes the reasons for academic failure, repetition, learning difficulties and adaptation of children to school in Germany. Special attention is paid to the methodology of studying this phenomenon and approaches to its elimination. The urgency of the problem of failure of schoolchildren is accentuated not only in relation to the educational system in Germany, but also in other countries, including Russia. The comments of experts in the field of international comparative studies of student performance are given.

Comorbid learning difficulties in linguistic and mathematical skills often emerge in primary school age. The cause of coinciding of both learning difficulties during children’s development spanning pre- and primary-school age is not yet well understood. To address this research gap, we used data from the German National Educational Panel Study (NEPS; n = 301) of four groups of children which were categorized according to their skill levels in pre-school age: children with learning difficulties isolated in linguistic skills (LD), children with learning difficulties isolated in mathematical skills (MD), children with learning difficulties combined in linguistic and mathematical skills (MD/LD), and children with typical development in both skills (TA). Computing univariate and repeated measures ANCOVAs we compared the mathematical and linguistic development of the four groups of children (LD, MD, LD/MD, and TA) spanning age four to ten. Results reveal a partial catch-up in linguistic skills (lexical, grammatical) for children with LD. In contrast, children with MD did not overcome their mathematical competence gap in comparison with TA and LD. Moreover, children with MD showed a decrease in grammatical skills during transition in primary school. Further, children with MD/LD displayed the weakest performance in linguistic and mathematical skills during pre- and primary-school age in general. However, after controlling for working memory, initial performance differences between the groups decreased in favor of MD/LD. The relation between linguistic skills and mathematical skills in persisting learning difficulties as well as the specific role of working memory are discussed.

The monograph examines the issues of prevention and correction of difficulties in learning to read, caused by the so-called dyslexia - a violation of the ability to read - in children of primary school age. The diagnostic and advisory function of the primary school teacher and his ability to support children with reading problems by recognizing the corresponding symptoms in time is updated. It examines how students with specific learning difficulties, manifested by symptoms of dyslexia, cope with their problem and whether they can be helped in the practice of primary school.

This paper presents the current researches revealing the peculiarities of neurocognitive status in primary school age and illustrating the achievements of the scientific school of foreign universities in such areas as: neuroscience compensatory-regulatory mechanisms of overcoming congenital learning difficulties; educational strategies that optimize the neurobiological status of the student; neurobiological tools for the development of the cognitive sphere of students; environmental and psychosomatic factors that affect the neurocognitive status of young students. The authors allocated memory resources, executive activity capabilities, inhibition reactions and self-control as the main elements in cognitive competencies’ formation. The materials provide evidence in favor of the importance of the quality of educational environments and attention to students with learning difficulties in their first school years.

Primary School Age

The present study examined age differences in time-based prospective memory (TBPM) in primary school age children and tested the role of self-initiated memory retrieval and strategic time monitoring (TM) as possible developmental mechanisms. Fifty-four children were recruited from local primary schools (27 younger children, mean age = 7.2 ± 0.55 years, and 27 older children, mean age = 9.61 ± 0.71 years). The task was a driving game scenario in which children had to drive a vehicle (ongoing task) and to remember to refuel before the vehicle runs out of gas (TBPM task, i.e., the fuel gauge served as child-appropriate time equivalent). Fuel gauge was either displayed permanently (low level of self-initiation) or could only be viewed on demand by hitting a button (high level of self-initiation). The results revealed age-dependent TBPM differences with better performance in older children. In contrast, level of self-initiated memory retrieval did not affect TBPM performance. However, strategies of TM influenced TBPM, as more frequent time checking was related to better performance. Patterns of time checking frequency differed according to children’s age and course of the game, suggesting difficulties in maintaining initial strategic TM in younger children. Taken together, the study revealed ongoing development of TBPM across primary school age. Observed age differences seemed to be associated with the ability to maintain strategic monitoring.

Цель. Анализ влияния характера зрения (ХЗ)на показатели сложной сенсомоторной реакции на движущийся объект (РДО)у детей младшего школьного возраста с содружественным сходящимся косоглазием (ССК). Материал и методы. Было обследовано 33 ребенка (66 глаз), в возрасте 6–11 лет, с ССК на фонеHm4,6±2,5Д. Сформированы 3 группы, в зависимости от ХЗ, на фоне полной коррекции. 1 группа – 12 детей (24 глаза) с монокулярным ХЗ, угол косоглазия 5,9±4,0°, 2 группа –12 детей (24 глаза)с одновременным ХЗ, угол косоглазия 3,9±3,6°,3 группа – дети с бинокулярным ХЗ – 9 пациентов(18 глаз), угол косоглазия 0,9±0,8°. Всем пациентам проводилось стандартное страбологическое обследование. РДО была исследована с помощью аппаратно-программного комплекса «НС-Психотест»(ООО «Нейрософт). Результаты. Среднее время РДО в 1 группе –29,1±9,5мс, во 2 группе – 16,6±8,4мс, в 3 группе –-12,4±4,1мс (р <0,05). Положительное значение среднегруппового показателя РДО детей 1 и 2 группы является следствием преобладания у большинства обследуемых процессов торможения в ЦНС. Отрицательное значение среднегруппового показателя детей 3 группы является свидетельством преобладающей реакции НС в виде дисбаланса течения нервных процессов в сторону возбуждения в ответ на предложенную нагрузку. Выводы. Отсутствие у детей 1 и 2 группы бинокулярного зрения приводит не только к нарушению аккомодационно-конвергентных взаимосвязей в зрительном анализаторе, но и является причиной изменения зрительной экстраполяции, что приводит к снижению подвижности нервных процессов и преобладанию тормозных процессов в ЦНС(положительное значение средне группового показателя времени РДО детей 1 группы – 29,1±9,5 мс,2 группы – 16,6±8,4 мс).
