“…Thus motivation does not affect the learning difficulties of mentally disabled students [8]. Motivation is defined as intentional involvement in cognitive activities which play an important part in the learning process, determine what part we choose to study, and how well we study the information provided [20]. The percentage of motivation is explained in more detail through Figure 1.…”

In this paper, we analyse the internal and external factors that cause learning difficulties for students with mental retardation. The research subjects were 7 mentally retarded students, to carry out this study the observation sheet was designed to observe students while at school, questionnaire for students and teachers, and interview sheets for students, teachers and parents. The results obtained revealed that internal factors such as motivation and interest had no effect as well as for readiness and attention, while the extrenal factor, which is the school and family environment, influences. So it can be concluded that what affects the learning biology difficulties of retarded students is external factors.

“…), behaviours described within the framework of the concept of mental disorders [2,3,6]. The clinical picture of mental retardation is described by a slow, insufficiently differentiated reaction of children with mental retardation to stimuli [7]. The underdevelopment of mental activity comes to the fore, which is described by a generalisation and clearly manifests itself in the hierarchy of mental processes.…”

Objective: The study of intellectual disabilities in children and their diagnosis has become more and more relevant in recent years. In the 21st century, in terms of diagnostics and the implementation of psychological influences, the problem of identifying the features of communication skills in children with intellectual disabilities becomes very significant and urgent. Background: This study aims to review modern ideas about the role of intelligence in the development of communication. The methodological framework of this study was the combination of various theoretical methods of cognition. The author analysed the scientific literature of Russian and foreign researchers. Method: The following methods of scientific cognition were used: data synthesis and analysis. In the process of writing this work on the modern ideas of scientists, according to the subject matter, the author studied the current level of research on this issue. Results: The works of Russian and foreign scientists were considered, as well as conclusions, were drawn about the levels of study of the problem of intellectual disability in children. Conclusion: The practical significance of this study lies in the identification of modern ideas about intellectual disabilities. The study and research of this subject will provide opportunities for the development of a programme of psychological influence on the optimisation of non-verbal communication of children with intellectual disabilities.

Objective: The purpose of the study is to investigate the specific features of non-verbal communication in children with intellectual disabilities in the dynamics of psychological impact. Background: Gestures are one of the most important components of non-verbal communication. The development of non-verbal communication in children with intellectual disabilities contributes to their normal social adaptation. Method: To study the current state and dynamics of the development of the ability to recognise and understand gestures in the process of psychological influence, factor analysis was used by the principal component method with the use of varimax rotation. To verify the applicability of factor analysis to the selected variables, the Kaiser-Meier-Olkin measure of sample adequacy and Bartlett's sphericity test were used. Results: The data of the study showed that, depending on the level of intelligence or, more precisely, on the diagnosis given to the child, there are differences in the dynamics of the development of the components of non-verbal communication. Children with mild mental retardation display lower results than children with mixed specific disorders of psychological development and children with a normative level of intellectual development. Conclusion: The results obtained in the process of this study can be applied in practice by teachers and psychologists when working with children with intellectual disabilities.
