The article provides theoretical generalizations on the use of dance therapy in the correction and socialization of individuals with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). It also presents the author’s year-long programme of such rehabilitation and quasi-experimental observations on its effectiveness. The article proves that dance therapy performs a much wider range of functions, than correction of MSDs. It acts as an effective way of social and psychological adaptation of individuals with MSDs. In particular, it allows one to develop independence, train relaxation skills and concentration, enhance the creativity of the inner self, creative imagination, reduce tension in the team, listen to and hear others better, relieve body tension, enhance communication skills, develop intellectually in the field of various arts, identify and correct problems in a particular child and children groups. The article proposes the hypothesis according to which one-year dance therapy should improve the manifestations of social adaptation of individuals with MSDs. The findings of the article can be used, first of all, in the post-Soviet countries, where dance therapy does not have a long tradition and requires borrowing international experience.

The article presents the results of correctional work on the program of communication development for children with autism spectrum disorders. The need for initial work on the development of communication skills in children with autism in an individual format, with an adult (defectologist) as the impetus and driver of communication, has been substantiated. The main components of communication, characteristics of the development of these components in children with ASD and their ways of formation and development have been given. The main methods included in the correctional and developmental program are sensory integration methods, music therapy, elements of ABA therapy, and game therapy. The structure of the program and the main principles on which it is based has been described. The results of implementing this program on three children with ASD have been analyzed, and the dynamics of changes in communication skills through the ABLLS-R questionnaire and the RCDI-2000 scale were tracked. It was found that the program for the formation of communication skills of children with ASD with the use of sensory integration methods, music therapy,elements of ABA therapy, and game therapy forms the basic components of communication and takes into account the specific features of the development of children in this category. There are noticeable improvements in the development of the emotional and volitional sphere of children, it has become much easier for them to express their emotions, preferences, desires and attitude to the situation, communicative motivation has begun to form, and basic prerequisites for communication have appeared.

В статье рассмотрена проблема социально-психологической адаптации к дошкольному учреждению детей раннего возраста. Ее актуальность обоснована требованиями Федерального Закона «Об образовании» в Российской Федерации от 29.12.2012 года № 273-ФЗ (глава 7, статья 64) о необходимости создания условий для развития и социальной адаптации, способствующих укреплению и сохранению здоровья детей дошкольного возраста. Цель исследования состояла в определении содержательного и процессуального компонентов программы психолого-педагогического развития социально-психологической адаптации детей раннего возраста. В работе представлены результаты экспериментального исследования содержательного и процессуального аспектов адаптации этих детей к дошкольному учреждению, а также представлены результаты поиска новых концептуальных и эмпирических оснований психолого-педагогического сопровождения адаптации детей к дошкольному учреждению на базе ведущих подходов отечественной психологии — субъектно-деятельностного и личностно-ориентированного. Авторы выдвинули гипотезу о том, что эффективность программы развития социально-психологической адаптации детей раннего возраста обеспечивается развитием следующих ее компонентов: эмоционально-мотивационного (создание эмоционально благоприятной атмосферы в группе детей, снятие эмоционального напряжения, импульсивности, тревоги и агрессии); содержательно-целевого (развитие коммуникативных навыков, создание благоприятных условий для знакомства детей друг с другом, предпосылок для групповой сплоченности; развитие игровых навыков, произвольного поведения, формирование у детей ситуативно-делового общения на базе ситуативно-личностного); организационно-дея­тельностного (игровая деятельность, рефлексивная деятельность, изобразительная, сказкотерапия, пальчиковая гимнастика; элементы телесной терапии) и контрольно-оценочного (контроль и оценка с учетом критериев адаптированности на когнитивном, физиологическом, социальном, поведенческом и личностном уровнях). На базе эмпирического материала констатирующего этапа эксперимента, в котором участвовали 33 ребенка двух–трех лет, входящих в состав двух младших групп детского сада, 3 педагога и 33 родителя, авторы анализируют факторы адаптации детей раннего возраста к дошкольному образовательному учреждению. Результаты данного этапа могут быть использованы в качестве обоснования программы развития социально-психологической адаптации детей раннего возраста. Кратко представлена разработанная программа развития социально-психологической адаптации детей, которая была реализована на этапе формирующего эксперимента, оценка ее эффективности на контрольном этапе и перспективы дальнейших исследований. The article treats the issue of young children’s social and psychological adaptation to preschool environment. The relevance of the research is accounted for by the requirements stipulated in the Federal Law on Education in the Russian Federation of 29.12.2012 no 273-ФЗ (chapter 7, article 64) and associated with the necessity of providing favorable environments for young children’s development and social adaptation aimed at the preservation and improvement of their health. The aim of the research is to explore the content and procedure of young children’s social and psychological adaptation and their psychological and pedagogical development. The article presents the results of an empirical research aimed at the investigation of the content and procedure of young children’s psychological adaptation to preschool environment. It also presents the results of a research aimed at the investigation of the conceptual and empirical foundation of young children’s psychological and pedagogical adaptation to preschool environment through the prism of subject-activity approach and person-cantered approach as leading approaches of Russian psychology. The authors of the article hypothesize that the efficiency of programs aimed at young children’s social and psychological adaptation closely depends on the following components: emotion and motivation (the creation of an emotionally favourable atmosphere, removal of emotional strain, reduction of impulsiveness, anxiety and aggression); content and goal (the development of communication skills, the creation of favourable conditions for children’s communication, the instigation of cooperation, the development of game playing skills and arbitrary behaviour, the development of formal and informal communication skills); activity and implementation (game activities, reflexive activities, drawing ad painting activities, fairytale therapy, fingerplays, body therapy), monitoring and assessment (monitoring and evaluating adaptation at cognitive, physiological, social, behavioural and personal levels). The authors use empirical data gathered during the concluding stage of an experiment involving 33 young children (2-3-year olds attending junior kindergarten groups), 3 teachers, and 33 parents to analyze factors affecting young children’ adaptation to preschool environment. The results of the research can be used to develop a program of young children’s social and psychological adaptation. The authors summarize the main principles of the program of young children’s social and psychological adaptation which was employed in the experiment; they assess its efficiency and evaluate the potential of its further application.

Individuals with Rett syndrome (RS) present with a complex profile. They benefit from a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up. In our clinic, the Communication Matrix © (Rowland, 1990/1996/2004) is used to collect data about the communication skills and modalities used by those with RS across the lifespan. Preliminary analysis of this data supports the expected changes in communication behaviors as the individual with RS ages and motor deficits have a greater impact.

Hospital reimbursements are linked to patient satisfaction surveys, which are directly related to interpersonal communication between provider and patient. In today’s health care environment, interactions are challenged by diversity — Limited English proficient (LEP) patients, medical interpreters, International Medical Graduate (IMG) physicians, nurses, and support staff. Accent modification training for health care professionals can improve patient satisfaction and reduce adverse events. Surveys were conducted with medical interpreters and trainers of medical interpreting programs to determine the existence and support for communication skills training, particularly accent modification, for interpreters and non-native English speaking medical professionals. Results of preliminary surveys suggest the need for these comprehensive services. 60.8% believed a heavy accent, poor diction, or a different dialect contributed to medical errors or miscommunication by a moderate to significant degree. Communication programs should also include cultural competency training to optimize patient care outcomes. Examples of strategies for training are included.
