The aim of this study was to examine the psychometric properties of the Russian version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). The participants were 1800 Russians, including 1076 (59.8%) women and 724 (40.2%) men aged 18 to 90 years (M=30.2; SD=14.5). They completed the Russian version of the PHQ-9. The results showed that the Russian PHQ-9 had high internal reliability (α-Cronbach=0.89). The single-factor structure of the Russian PHQ-9, confirmed by exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, highlights the factor validity of the adapted questionnaire. Among the Russians surveyed, 34.4% had high depression, from 22.1% to 81.7% of the participants reported various symptoms of depressive disorders. Depressive symptoms were more common in women and younger respondents, with the exception of complaints about sleep problems, which were more common in older respondents. Further psychometric tests of the Russian PHQ-9 should attract objective data and people with diagnosed depressive disorders.

The article contains a review of the two-volume “Special psychology” textbook, under the executive editorship of V.I. Lubovsky, the outstanding psychologist, Academician of the Russian Academy of Education [1; 2], who celebrates his centenary in 2023. In this book, special psychology appears for the first time in the world educational literature as a holistic and systematically presented scientific field. The book includes previously unpublished materials. The textbook is for university students, but it may be of interest to postgraduate students, researchers, practicing psychologists, teachers, and other professionals working with children and adults with various developmental disabilities. The textbook, in addition to considering general problems of special psychology and the patterns of mental development in dysontogenesis, analyzes in detail the specific features of different variants of impaired development, including children with disorders of the emotionally volitional sphere and behavior, as well as applied problems of special psychology and prospects for this scientific branch.

The work is devoted to the empirical analysis of age shifts within the framework of the factor model of autism for preschool children. In the 2020–2022 studies, we obtained a factor model of autism and identified 4 vectors of autism — typical subtypes of ASD in 3–4 years old children. Among them are: 1) difficulties in establishing emotional contact, expressing one's emotions and decoding other people's emotions in the context of social interaction; 2) sensory disintegration; 3) impairments in verbal and nonverbal communication and social skills; 4) hyperactivity, including excessive movements, motor disinhibition and restless behavior. It should be emphasized that the first three vectors correspond to the core symptoms of ASD in accordance with the DSM-5. While the hyperactivity factor goes beyond the main symptoms of ASD. In this paper, a comparative analysis of the severity and stability of symptoms was carried out within the framework of a 4-factor model of autism for 3–4 and 5–6-year-old children with autism. Sensory and communication impairments have been found to decrease with age, however, emotional impairments and hyperactivity remain at a high level. The theoretical foundations of emotional disorders and hyperactivity in children with ASD are analyzed in detail. Brief practical recommendations are presented for effective early intervention in order to improve the potential trajectory of development of preschool children with ASD.

The article presents a review of studies on the psychological reactions of children to a situation of surgical treatment. Surgical treatment is considered as a situation with a high potential for stress, which is due to the variety and high intensity of stress effects which are experienced by the child as new and uncontrolled. Negative psychological responses are observed in children both at the preoperative and postoperative stages. At the preoperative stage, preoperative anxiety is highly prevalent. The risk of its development depends on a complex of factors related to the child themself, his/her environment, as well as the disease, hospital environment, the treatment and the circumstances of hospitalization. Preoperative anxiety is a risk factor for more severe pain symptoms, emotional and behavioral changes in the postoperative period. The article discusses the modern methods for the prevention and correction of preoperative anxiety and postoperative emotional and behavioral changes in children: the presence of parents during the induction of anesthesia, providing information using modern technologies and principles of social learning, distraction and other cognitive and behavioral methods for the correction of the mental state, multimodal methods for harmonizing the emotional state and behavior of children (art therapy, play therapy, clown therapy). The authors come to the conclusion that further research is needed in order to develop algorithms for the psychological support of children in a situation of surgical treatment, taking into account their age, clinical characteristics, the psychological features of the child and his/her parents.

Objectives. The use of alternative and augmented communication in children and adults with developmental disabilities significantly improves the skills necessary for successful social adaptation and learning. The article analyzes the results of using the PECS IV+ tablet communication app in several children with different types of developmental disabilities. Methods. Three children with different types of developmental disabilities (including autism, cognitive impairments etc.) aged 5–6 years took part in this case study. Participants study in the preschool department of the “My Planet” Inclusive Center. To test the effects and effectiveness of using the PECS IV+ application, a multiple-baseline design was used. We analyzed the transition from the analog version of PECS to the tablet application. The dependent variables were the number mands (non-verbal request behavior) and episodes of problem behavior. In addition, we calculated the d-Cohen effect size for each participant. Results. The average number of requests increased in the intervention phase in two out of three participants, medium effect of changes between phases is recorded for all participants. In terms of the number of episodes of problem behavior, a significant decrease was detected in two of the participants. The strong size of the effect of changes in this parameter between phases was revealed in two of the three participants. Conclusion. The study suggests that when using the e-application, the study participants showed reductions in some types of undesirable behaviours, as well as successful requesting skills.

The purpose of this paper was to develop a parent rating scale targeted at screening children in terms of giftedness. 292 parents of gifted and typical students participated in the study. Of the parents, 170 were female while 122 were male. In the study, parents were asked to indicate the prominent characteristics of their gifted children and 10 items were identified after the characteristics were examined by two experts. It was seen to that the items determined were compatible with the items in the parent rating scales in the literature. Content, construct and criterion-related validities were examined while the Cronbach alpha value as a sign of reliability was also examined. Content validity was approved by two experts, Kendall’s coefficient of concordance was calculated to determine inter-expert agreement and found to be 0.80. Confirmatory factor analysis results also supported a one-factor solution for an 8-item instrument. A comparison of scores given by parents of gifted and typical students also revealed a significant difference between two groups of the parents in favor of the parents having gifted children. The Cronbach’s alpha value was found to be 0.78, an acceptable value for internal consistency. Therefore, the Short-Form Parent Rating Scale (SFPRS) may be used to screen practically gifted children by the parents without using boring and long instruments. In addition, not checking convergent and divergent validity, test-retest reliability and measurement invariance are seen as the limitations of this paper.
