Abstract
Purpose of the article – to study children’s psychoneurological changes with frequent episodes of bronchoobstructive syndrome for urgent complex preventive therapy of bronchial asthma development. Results of research within children aged 7 − 14 with repeated episodes of bronchoobstructive syndrome are showed as well as 25 children of the same age with sporadic cases of A.R.V.I. without obstructive syndrome. Psychological examination was done in two steps: selective testing (Eysenck test, Rosenzveig test of frustration tolerance, Lusher test of colour choices) and diagnostic psychodynamic interview made by psychologist. It was stated that within 89,3% of children were found asthentic changes, emotional disorder, decrement of physical activity and working efficiency. Decrement of intellect and memory deterioration were found within half of the children. Sleep disorders were characteristic (80% of cases); half of the children formed hysteroid features of the character, in particular egocentrism and demonsratism in speech and behavior. Vegetative dysfunction was evident by hyperhidrosis, tendency to arterial hypertension, firm red dermographism, frequent headaches and dizziness (55,6% of children). The level of neuroticism with these children was quite higher: emotional lability connected with decrease of extroversion was determined with lethargy and inertness. Advanced sensitivity, decreased hyperthymism that explains the decrease of initiativity, activity and pessimism; inertness of affect, fixation on any emotions; dysthymia took place. According to the Lusher test green colour within half of the tested of the main group was pushed into indifferent block or sawn-off colours block, at the same time brown colour moved to the zone of main ones. It states about lowering of concernment in life, abruption of need in autonomy and self-affirmation and willingness of calm. The results of the second stage show that children of the examinational group have some individual patterns (types) of reaction and low frustration tolerance in situations that require estimation of their autonomy and abstract (separated) functioning. Unsolved conflict closeness/distance in relationship with signify figures of development, mother in particular, may lie in the basics of it. Therefore, conducted research shows that frequent episodes of bronchoobstructive syndrome have significant negative effect on psychoneurological state of children and require further study and correction. Perspectives of the further research might be issues of practicability of psych correction or psychotherapy in the face of traditional treatment in every particular case, choice of optimal methods and levels of psychotherapy interaction.
