Psychological correction of neurotic disorders in children, suffered from the Chernobyl catastrophe

The necessity of psychological correction program is justified by the fact that 34.4% of the children showed certain clinical symptoms of neurotic disorders, in the first place somatoform and adaptation disorders. All these children have undergone different programs of psychological correction and psychotherapy. As the result in children with somatoform disorders psychosthenity (p=0,042), emotional unstability (p=0,031) and dependency (p=0,040) certainly reduced. In children with adaptation disorders personal harmonizing and communicative attainments were distinguished. In all participants of the psychocorrectional programs clinical symptoms of neurotic disorders disappeared. We recommend to include psychocorrection and psychotherapy in the base complexes of sanatoriums for children, residing in the contaminating regions. (Authors)
