Abstract

The work is aimed at clarifying the factors of psychological well-being of primary schoolchildren. The materials of empirical research obtained on a sample of 1st grade students of a Moscow school are presented. The study involved first-graders aged 6 to 8 years (N=90, of which 53% were female), their parents (N=86) and class teachers (N=4). The following methods were used: Drawing of a tree, Color test of emotional states and “Houses”, questionnaire E.M. Aleksandrovskaya “Adaptation of schoolchildren”, questionnaire for teachers “Features of student communication”, diagnostic task “Postcards” and questionnaire for parents (all authorised). As a result of the study, significant positive correlations were revealed between indicators of psychological well-being with communication skills of schoolchildren. First-graders with higher indicators of the formation of communication skills have higher indicators of psychological well-being.
