Introduction. The article examines the problem of adaptive response to cognitive activity in primary schoolchildren with different individual psychological characteristics. The objective of the research is to study the response of the autonomic nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems to cognitive load in primary school children with different levels of anxiety and neuroticism. Materials and Methods. The research sample consisted of 38 primary schoolchildren. The data for this study were collected using the following methods: spectral and temporal analysis of heart rate variability, electrocardiography, bipolar reoencephalography, tonometry and enzyme-linked immunosorbent determination of cortisol in saliva. The levels of anxiety were identified using the CMAS scale adapted by A.M. Prikhozhan. In order to assess the level of neuroticism, the authors applied the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. The cognitive load involved working with digital Schulte tables. Results. The authors found that the type and intensity of the reaction of the autonomic nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems in primary schoolchildren depend on personal characteristics (the level of anxiety and neuroticism). The study revealed that children with medium anxiety and low neuroticism levels showed the most beneficial organism response to cognitive load. The most pronounced and generalized reaction of the organism was indicated among schoolchildren with high levels of anxiety and medium levels of neuroticism. It was revealed that the hyperactivity of the autonomic nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems in primary schoolchildren with high levels of anxiety and neuroticism was determined by the initially high level of the studied indicators. Conclusions. The response of the autonomic nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems to cognitive load is stressful for primary schoolchildren with increased and high levels of anxiety and neuroticism. In this regard, the authors emphasize the need for psychological and teaching interventions aimed at measuring and treating anxiety disorders in primary school children.

Unfavorable forecasts of environmental scientists regarding environmental changes actualize the problem of environmental values importance in the process of children upbringing.The article theoretically substantiates that emotions caused by perception of ecological situations of their region leave unconscious "imprints" in the child's life and therefore can serve as a psychological foundation for the formation of these values in primary school children.  For children of primary school age, when they assess environmental situations, circumstances, events they encounter in their lives, the emotional reaction often outstrips the cognitive one, reflects the personal meaning, value attitude of a child towards them.The aim of the article is to study the emotional component of primary school children’ value attitude to the ecological situation of his region in order to introduce core value of "ecological safety" into his/her system of values. The study was based on the analysis of philosophical, psychological and pedagogical literary sources, testing, interviewing primary school children and pedagogical experiment.Managing the emotional development of primary schoolchildren can significantly change their value attitude to nature. Under conditions of the experiment, 61% of children began to realize their need for vigorous activity, and 17% of junior schoolchildren became psychologically ready for joint environmental protection activities.

The article is devoted to the problem of using digital educational resources (COR) for the development of cognitive interests of younger students in extracurricular activities. Using the methods of theoretical analysis of scientific sources, questionnaires, comparison of digital educational resources located on educational Internet portals, websites and platforms, the author in her studies identifies necessary requirements for a modern teacher – the ability to navigate and use digital educational resources. The article discusses the features of primary school children of generation A (alpha). The author made an attempt to define the concept of “digital educational resources” in relation to extracurricular activities. The CORs contained in twenty-four educational Internet portals, sites and platforms were studied and the possibility of their use for the development of cognitive interests of younger students in extracurricular activities was analyzed. Parents were surveyed in order to establish their opinion about the use of Internet resources. The attitude of teachers to the use of COR in extracurricular work with younger students is determined. The conclusion is made that it is necessary to use the COR in the extracurricular activities of primary schoolchildren for developing cognitive interests. The author also noted that the number of such resources is insufficient.

Aggressive Reactions

The article provides definitions of aggression, the causes of its occurrence, as well as fairy tale therapy as a means of overcoming aggressive manifestations. A research was conducted to study the psychological characteristics of the aggressive behaviour of younger schoolchildren. The formative linear experiment was used. The method for diagnosing aggression Bass-Darky and Rosenzweig's test of measuring the aggressiveness were carried out. In the aggressive behavior of primary school children is dominated by negative and indirect aggression; verbal and physical aggression are moderately manifested; auto-aggression, insult and suspicion are weakly expressed. More than half of primary schoolchildren have a high level of aggressiveness. In the vast majority of pupils, aggressive reactions are directed to the environment, that is, the orientation of aggression is extrapunitive. In about a quarter of pupils, the orientation of aggression is impunitive, for what happened they attribute the blame to the situation. The weakest expression has the intrapunitive orientation of aggression, when the child considers himself responsible for the event. To overcome the aggressive manifestations of primary schoolchildren, a training program was used, in which therapeutic tales and training exercises were included. If before applying a training program for overcoming agressiveness, aggressive reactions of most younger schoolchildren were directed at others, and they considered others to be responsible for solving the problem, then after implementing the training program the results of the retest show that there has been a sharp increase in the rate of intrapunitive aggression. That is, children began to count, that the solution of the problem depends more on the person, and in case of failure, the person should blame not the other, but own identity. Therapeutic fairy tales are an effective way to overcome the aggressive behaviour of children in educational institutions.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the adaptive capacity of the blood microcirculation system in children of primary school age for a functional test with heating. The article deals with the study of the blood microcirculation system in primary school children by laser Doppler flowmetry and the study of the reserve capacity of tissue blood flow in children on a test with increasing temperature factor. Materials and methods. The research was conducted on the basis of the laboratory of physiological research of the Department of Anatomy and Physiology of People and Animals of Bohdan Khmelnytsky Melitopol State Pedagogical University. The surveyed contingent consisted of 80 practically healthy children aged 6 to 9 years old, secondary school students in Melitopol. Based on a comprehensive morphofunctional study, we obtained data on individual-typological features of blood microcirculation in primary school children and the reserve capacity of tissue blood flow using functional tests. It is established that the adaptive features of the blood microcirculation system in boys and girls of early school age are due to different levels of local and central mechanisms of microvessel regulation. Results and discussion. The results obtained during the thermal test indicate different levels of reactivity of the body to increasing the temperature factor and the neurogenic vasoconstrictor effects of the sympathetic nervous system on the vessels of the arteriolar part of the microcirculatory tract. The reaction to the thermal test directly depends on the individual-typological features of blood microcirculation. Conclusion. At a ratio of reaction to thermal influence in children with various types of microcirculation, the maximum increase in tissue perfusion was observed in children with type III of laser Doppler flowgram. This level of microvascular reactivity, as well as the relatively rapid recovery of blood flow after thermal hyperemia is explained by the fact that children with hyperemic type of microcirculation have increased microvascular tone due to neurogenic effects of the sympathetic chain of tissue blood flow regulation. Children with the hypoemic type of microcirculation, on the other hand, have a somewhat reduced sympathetic tone relative to the normoemic type, as a result of which the reserve of capillary blood flow is reduced and the time of blood flow recovery after thermal exposure is prolonged
