Abstract
The article outlines the importance of development and probation of a Ukrainian diagnostic visual measure to study social intelligence in pre-schoolers with mild intellectual disabilities and pre-schoolers with normative development. Currently, Ukrainian special psychology needs research moral-behavioural component of social intelligence in pre-schoolers with mild intellectual disabilities. The psychological diagnostic tool, developed by the article authors, examines the moral-behavioural component of social intelligence, which means children’s ability to interpret and evaluate other people’s actions, their ability to identify oneself with others and to predict the situation depending on a committed act, formed moral ideas in preschool children. The tool can be applied for children with mild intellectual disabilities and those with normal development. The tool consists of sets of pictures depicting the dynamic unfolding of the Ukrainian fairy-tale «Crow and Viper» and the following emotions: 1) joy; 2) anger; 3) sadness; 4) fear; 5) surprise; 6) rest (separate sets for boys and girls). The specifics of emotion recognition by pre-schoolers with mild intellectual disabilities and children with normative development were determined. The experimental verification has shown that children adequately evaluate the fairy tale characters, condemning the Viper’s behaviour and approving the Crow’s acts. Identifying themselves with the Viper, pre-schoolers mainly answer that they would not eat chicks if they were the Viper. They were able to predict a negative attitude towards this character because of its behaviour. For example, children said that did not want be friends with the Viper, «because it was evil (angry, bad)». We have theoretically justified that the prospects of further scientific studies will include interpretation of experimental data revealing formation of the moral-behavioural component of social intelligence in pre-schoolers with mild intellectual disabilities.
