1448

Abstract

The article presents an example of practice-oriented research based on case analysis and case formulation method. The authors introduce their experience of using this method in the psychological work with child suffering from general speech disorder. Symptoms of ill-being were examined in combination with the biographical facts about the child, data obtained by observation and understanding of the peculiarities of the child’s inner world. The authors emphasize the necessity not only of studying the objective external circumstances of the situation of development, but also of working out the procedures of analysis of child’s personal experience, self-awareness and identifications which can manifest in the child’s behavior. The method appears to be perspective and to contribute to understanding of the origins of psychological difficulties and emotional and behavioral problems. This information could be valuable and even vital for formulating aims and developing the treatment strategy.
