The goal of the presented research is to identify the origin of differences between Serbian (N=166) and Roma children (N=169) of primary school age in achievement on Modified Rosenzweig Test, used as a measure of social intelligence (Roma children had lower results than Serbian children). Results show that these differences can be partly explained with extreme inviolable socio-economic and cultural status of Roma children. Social intelligence test's scores are significantly correlated with socio-economic and cultural status; this correlation is more apparent in Roma than in Serbian sample. Differences between Serbian and Roma children become less apparent when we control the influence of socio-economic and cultural status. Parent's educational level is recognized as the most important indicator of socio-economic and cultural status. Another way to identify the origin of differences was directed to investigation of adequacy of used test as a measure of social intelligence of Roma children. Our assumption that some items make whole test unfair for Roma children is not confirmed. However, results concerning the relation between experience with particular social situations and success in particular test items, and results concerning the different structures of implicite understanding of social intelligence by Serbian and Roma parents, point out that test key favors responses that Serbian people accept as optimal in task situation, while the responses according to Roma implicite understanding of social intelligence are less valued.

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.

The article discusses the concept of social intelligence and its characteristics in children of primary school age with impaired mental functions. The concept and main features, including speech, are discussed, delays of mental development, the importance of detained development for social intelligence and speech behavior are also considered. Also, the concept of speech behavior is analyzed, the author defines the phenomenon, describes its specific features, which are distinguish its structure, and consist of six components: verbal, emotional, motivational, ethical (moral), prognostic, semantic (cognitive). Particular attention is paid to the position of social intelligence in the structure of speech behavior of children of primary school age with a impaired mental functions. Indicators of social intelligence were analyzed from the point of view of speech behavior of children with different rates of mental development and compared with its components at a qualitative level. The study used both author's and well-known techniques.

The paper presents the results of research covering 596 Romany children of primary school age. The research objective was to identify the somatic parameters and the motion performance of 7- to 10-year old Romany boys and girls. In order to determine the trends in the development of these children, the results were compared to those presented in Horváth (2001). The latter research covered 1093 Romany children living in East Slovakia. We evaluated the data in terms of statistical significance of the differences between the results obtained in 2000 and 2019. We analyzed the somatic parameters and motion performance of Romany children attending primary school in terms of improved or worse results during the period of 19 years. We calculated the basic statistical values and tested the hypotheses by Student t-test. The results are summarized in tables and diagrams. It was found out that the somatic parameters of Romany boys and girls of all age categories have significantly improved. The motion performance has also improved in a statistically significant manner, however, this finding does not hold for all test items not for all age categories.

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).
