Abstract

Background. Children with prenatal exposure to ethanol are characterized by various severe and irreversible behavioral and neurological changes. Therefore, these children belong to one of the most socially vulnerable groups and require early diagnostics and psychological treatment for various disorders that affect social adaptation. Aims. The article presents the results of research aimed at identifying and describing the characteristics of maladaptive behavior in primary school children with prenatal exposure to ethanol from different educational institutions. Materials and methods. The sample included 77 children 8.6 ± 1.03 years of age, including 57 boys and 20 girls (M = 8.6, SD = 1.0). The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS) and Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC, short form) were used. Results. The characteristics of maladaptive behavior in primary school children are described with respect to 7 profiles (by type of educational institution and social and family status). Conclusion: The study shows that such factors as low intelligence and state education for orphans and children without parental care, as well as correctional schools, increase the risk of developing maladaptive behavior in primary school children with health conditions.
