Abstract: Objectives: The purpose of this article is to study and generalize, detect main tendencies in modern views on various aspects of the psychological health of adolescents in recent publications (taken into account the publication on multiple problems of adolescents’ health over the past decade: 2009-2019).

Method: The literature search was conducted using Medline, TRIP Database and Cochrane Library to identify relevant medical studies over the past 10 years (2009-2019). The keywords search and title search and advanced search were applied in order to determine the articles and other forms of surveys on the general topic of adolescents’ psychological health. The articles were filtered for the TOP-30 concerning chronological principle and their actuality, novelty, citation level and deepness of the researchable aspect.

Results: Multiple publications that focus on the psychological health of adolescents were detected. They concentrate on the principal factors that force pathological psychical behaviour among adolescents. E.g., the impact of family members' health and life-limiting conditions, unemployment and precarious employment, the negative impact of alcohol and the Internet, cognitive-behavioral therapy programs, the internalization of symptoms in depressive or anxious states, Internet-based therapy, responses to antidepressants, the Youth Version Short (EQ-i: YV-S) have been described. The chosen medical studies have been systemized in the form of a table and some of them were discussed more closely due to their importance and novelty.

Conclusions: The study generalizes the most modern and innovatory views on aspects of the psychological health of adolescents in international publications taking into account synchronic and diachronic notions. The study may be used for close browsing of the current state of investigations in this scientific area as well as for further investigations in the forms of surveys and clinical experiments take notice of already detected and undetected yet problems.

Keywords: Adolescents, psychological health, depression, suicide, quality of life, mental health.

Abstract: This paper describes the enhancement of the math skills of people with ID in the education process and development of the mathematics methodology. As well this research gives details of its piloting and evaluation with a cohort of learners with ID who were enrolled in an education course.

The objective of the correctional school is to provide learners with the necessary math training, to introduce them into the big world of math, to make it an effective means of learning about the surrounding reality, development of thinking and moral perfection.

All of the above determines the relevance of the problem of math education of children with mental retardation in the circle of calculations.

The aim of the study is theoretically substantiated and experimentally test the system of correctional and pedagogical work on the math education of younger school children with intellectual disabilities in circle math classes.

Learners with intellectual disability (ID) have to overcome many barriers and difficulties in order to access all levels of education and partake in college life. Thankfully, educational institutes around the globe are slowly beginning to examine how they can support the equal rights of individuals with ID. In Kazakhstan, one university has recently accredited an innovative education program for college learners with intellectual disabilities.

The results of the study are presented by the emergent methodology’s which focuses on mathematics and realizes the important role that numeracy, which plays a great role in today’s society. Despite the increased emphasis on general mathematics education, the authors found there to be a dearth of research regarding the development of such a methodology for learners with ID.

Keywords: Learners with intellectual disability, Mathematics education, education, Course development, methodology.

Abstract: The research paper analyzes the peculiarities of training candidates for drivers for certain subtypes (components) of combined driving. The work is focused on the analysis of opportunities to improve the quality of training of drivers for such subtypes of driving as orientation on the road, which, in particular, is the basis for mastering parking manoeuvres. Based on the analysis of a number of works, less confidence of women in driving a vehicle in a limited space (as opposed to men) is shown, which is manifested in the choice of simpler tasks for this subtype of activity.

The psychological nature of the sense of dimensions is analyzed, the importance of visual sensations and long-term memory for the formation and development of this feeling is shown. The hypothesis about the possibility of compensating for the insufficiently developed and worsening with age sense of dimensions due to reliance on visual figurative memory and subject reflection is formulated.

The results of the empirical study, which found the relative independence of the level of development of linear and angular eye estimation and confidence in parking with different driving experience, are presented. The results of the analysis of the tasks for reflection of driving in a limited unstructured space by 100 drivers are presented, which confirm the hypothesis of the study: visual landmarks for parking in non-standard conditions, in percentage terms, are more often identified by older drivers with longer experience but with poorer indicators of linear and angular eye estimation, being no different in terms of parking confidence from young drivers with better eye estimation, which can be considered as a manifestation of the compensation mechanism.

Keywords: Multicomponent combined driving, road orientation, sense of dimensions, teaching method, driving style, parking confidence, gender, visual sensations, image memory, reflection.

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine whether the activities aimed at developing creative thinking had rendered the social adaptation of adolescents with deviant behaviour smooth and evaluate the changes which had resulted from that engagement. The research data were collected through the use of project checklists, student learning outcomes analysis, interviews with teachers and parents, questionnaires. This study used SPSS and SmartPLS statistical analysis tools to analyze the above data and Textalyser application to process the focus group responses. The study found that the participation of the secondary school students with behaviour deviation in legacy projects make their social adaptation easier, improves their social skills and creative thinking style. This study confirms that there is a positive relationship between socially important creative activities, learning motivation and development of creative thinking styles. It has been found that, despite the considerable amount of research regarding the use of creative activity to develop social adaptation skills in adolescents, the problem of social adaptation of adolescents with behaviour deviation has not been sufficiently explored through engaging them in activities aimed at developing creative thinking. The process of social adaptation of adolescents with behaviour deviation is complex and the creative component is in place there, since it supplies the educational process with irreplaceable pedagogical tools that have the potential to "restart" the student’s physiological and psycho-motivational spheres.

Keywords: Secondary school, teenagers with behaviour deviation, social adaptation, creative thinking, creative activity.
