“…Research results by В. Dučić, S. Kaljača (Balkans) on determining interconnections between the level of soft-skills mastering and successful study of children with moderate and light intellectual disorders are interesting. So, the researchers established, that the sample of respondents with MIDD demonstrates a positive correlation between formed soft-skills and studying achievements (r=0.334, p=0.037) [4]. It generally confirms our scientific position as to the positive influence of social development/formation of senior preschool children with MIDD on the readiness to studying at school.…”
