The article is devoted to the problem of studying social and psychological training as a means of developing the communicative competence of adolescents in inclusive classes. The purpose of the article is to analyze the results of a study of the influence of socio-psychological training on the development of the communicative competence of adolescents. Interpretations of the basic concepts of work as: "competence", "communication", "communication", "adolescence" are provided and their theoretical analysis is carried out. Communicative competence is defined as a complex, comprehensive education that ensures the success of the implementation of the main tasks of communication and self-realization of the individual and is expressed in an adequate perception of a communication partner, effective interaction and correct transfer of information. The development of communicative competence was considered through four indicators that are most important for the development of communicative competence: high emotional intelligence, self-management in communication, group cohesion, and a favorable atmosphere in the classroom. To develop these indicators, a social psychological training program was created. The methods of this research were: "Diagnostics of emotional intelligence" (N. Hall), "Study of the ability to self-government in communication", "Determination of the index of group cohesion of Sishore", "Methodology for assessing the psychological atmosphere in A. Fiedler's team." To test the significance of the effect of the independent variable, a nonparametric test of differences for dependent samples was applied, the Wilcoxon t-test. To compare the results of the experimental group with those of the control group, the Mann-Whitney U-test was used. Comparison of the results in dependent and independent samples before and after the training revealed that the program we developed was effective. In the experimental group, the general level of emotional intelligence rose from low to medium, in self-government in communication, the indicator on the partnership scale increased significantly, the level of group cohesion rose from medium to above average, the indicator of a favorable atmosphere in the classroom rose from neutral to medium. It is concluded that the program of socio-psychological training we have drawn up contributes to the development of emotional intelligence; develops the skills of effective interaction, introspection, self-expression, the ability to coordinate joint actions; reduces negative manifestations that can affect the psychological climate.

The aim of this study was to assess the influence of mental training on the increase in attention and manual response in certain athletes (skiers). The subjects within are samples are aged 12±5 and 16±1. The athletes who participated in this study are part of ski groups within School sports clubs. The experimental group comprises athletes from Gheorgheni, Baia-Sprie, while the control group includes of athletes from Topliţa, Sibiu, Predeal and Sinaia. We applied the ACRM (focused attention with manual response) test, because it provides information on the ability of remaining focused during activities with imposed pace and with dynamic field of observations. We conducted these tests after applying certain mental training techniques in the experimental group and after comparing the scores with those obtained by the control group. For the analysis, we used the SPSS 15.0 software. For the comparison of means between the groups of subjects, we applied ANOVA for the VP, EP and EX posttest measurements. The purpose was to determine whether the two groups have similar scores before the intervention. We applied mental imagery techniques on certain components of alpine skiing technique, based on hand-eye coordination. We also calculated a t test for dependent samples for VP, EP and EX, in posttest, to the end of establishing whether the intervention led to any alterations. The means and standard deviation for VP are as follows: for the control group 10.00±6.04 and for the experimental group 4.04±3.85; for EP test, the values for control group are 18.54±9.12 and for the experimental group 9.83±4.40; EX – the values obtained for the control group 0.86±0.07 and for the experimental group 0.92±0.05. The values for (t) Student Test were the following: for VP t=4.074, p<0.000; EP t=4.203, p<0.000; EX t=3.279, p<0.002.

AbstractPrevious studies have shown that emotional intelligence (henceforth, EI) has a significant impact on important life outcomes (e.g., mental and physical health, academic achievement, work performance, and social relationships). This study aimed to see whether there is any relationship between EI and English as a foreign language (EFL) learners’ oral fluency and investigated the possibility of enhancing EI through computer-mediated emotional activities. The participants were 63 students on the Interchange 2 course in a language center in Iran. Participants in the experimental group received EI training using movies with highly emotional content, with the express purpose of inducing them to talk about their emotions and raising their emotional intelligence. Movies shown to the control group did not place any emphasis on emotional content. The results showed a significant increase in EI scores in the experimental group, but no significant change was observed in the control group’s EI scores. Moreover, emotional intelligence correlated positively with the students’ levels of oral fluency.
