Background: Success of school education depends on many factors, including the most important mental function of a child, namely the type of hemispheric asymmetry of the brain that determines the characteristics of perception, memory, thinking strategy and the emotional sphere. Accounting the patterns of mental functions of a child constitutes the basis for the individualization of learning processes with the focus on maintaining the health of children and adolescents. The type of the hemispheric asymmetry is determined by the lateral phenotype of the subject, which is the set of peripheral motorsensory asymmetries.Aim of the study: To evaluate emotional and personal characteristics of pupils with different lateral phenotypes.Material and methods: 227 schoolchildren (caucasians) aged 7-15 years living in the city of Krasnoyarsk. The pupils were recognized clinically as healthy and they achieved the average physical and sexual development. Their lateral phenotype was assessed by the psychomotor tests for the guiding hand, the leading leg, eye and ear. The study aimed to explore the emotional personality traits, using child personality questionnaire G.U. Eysenck adapted to the childhood age and to estimate the level of intra - extraversion and neuroticisms in points.Results: Among schoolchildren of Krasnoyarsk city, there were numerous groups of children with right lateral and mixed phenotypes in combination with extroverted personality type and emotional stability. Among the children with left lateral and symmetric phenotypes almost half of the subjects recorded introverted personality type combined with high levels of neuroticism.Conclusions: the components of a child’s personality such as introverted personality type combined with high levels of neuroticism reduce the body’s adaptive capabilities of children and dictate the need for psycho-pedagogical correction. The results of the research can be used in psychology, age physiology and pedagogic.

Te purpose of the study was to study the features of socio-psychological adaptation (SPA) and the emotional status of students of different ages. 60 students 17-20 years and 60 schoolchildren 12-16 years old were examined. Te parameters of the SPA, including its integral characteristics, were evaluated by the questionnaire of K. Rogers — R. Diamond. Indicators of emotional status (anxiety, depression) were assessed on a scale (HADS) (Zigmond AS, et Snaith R.P., 1983) and Covi Anxiety Scale. Еstablished that the structure of violations of SPA in adolescents includes a low degree of adaptability, acceptance of oneself, acceptance of others, emotional comfort and internal control; Low estimates of the integral characteristics: adaptation, self-acceptance, acceptance of others, emotional comfort and internality. Reflection of social and psychological disadaptation among students is moderately pronounced disadaptation, rejection of self, rejection of others, list, escapism; From integrated indicators — higher scales of scales adaptation, self-perception and aspiration to domination. Students are more likely to differ subclinically, less ofen — clinically expressed anxiety and or depression. Tere are differences in the frequency of occurrence and structure of violations of sociopsychological adaptation in persons of different age groups (students and adolescents). Emotional disorders are more common in students than in adolescents and are predominantly subclinical, less commonly with clinically expressed anxiety and / or depression.
