Психологічні особливості спілкування молодших школярів з дорослими та однолітками

The article reveals the psychological features of communication of younger schoolchildren with adults and peers. The main factors and prerequisites for the manifestation of this phenomenon in the personality of elementary school age are characterized and analyzed. The analysis of the development of communication mechanisms and the reasons for the transition of children from one form of communication with surrounding adults to another proves that they are a special case of dialectical interaction of form and content. Until a certain time, the form of communication that has developed at a certain stage of child development corresponds to its content, which depends on the general development of the child and its relationships with the surrounding people. For some time, this form of communication provides opportunities to enrich the content, and therefore, the general mental development of the child. The dependence of relationships on the content of the need for communication is manifested both in children's communication with adults and in their communication with each other. In the foundation of good relations in communication with both partners lies the satisfaction of the child's need for benevolent attention of the surrounding people; it is "objectified" in personal communicative motives.
