3. SELF-CONCEPT
It is an abstract term that encompasses all
notions that one holds about themselves.
• It constitutes of everything
ranging from their strengths to
their weaknesses. In
psychology, self-concept can be
understood as patterns of
thoughts one holds about the
self. It could be positive or
negative.
• In 1999, Baumeister defined the
self-concept as “The individual’s
belief about himself or herself,
including the person’s attributes
and who and what the self is.”
The concept was proposed by Carl Rogers in 1959 as an
attempt to establish a new personality theory and is now
largely used by psychologists practicing under the
framework of the client-centered approach.

6. SUBJECTIVELY PERCEIVED CHANGE OF
SELF-CONCEPT
changes in the temperament and character performance
difficulties in the automated use of intellectual experience and the acquisition of new
knowledge
an emotional surge, reactivity and sensitivity
difficulty in a spontaneous manifestation of an individual’s character traits and their
de-automatization.
excessive "soul-searching" and reflection
a pessimistic assessment of one's qualities, shyness and resentment surge
one makes great efforts to maintain their former social status
"passive compensation reaction“
use of pathological forms of compensation - excessive sports, unusual hobbies, drug
addiction or alcoholism
7. OBJECTIVELY DEFINED CHANGES
the loss of pre-morbid
individual properties of
temperament and character
arises and signs of social
maladaptation appear.
in these cases, PwD is not
aware of their changes, but
others see it.
8. TYPES OF OBJECTIVELY DEFINED CHANGES
personality disharmony, including schizopathy
(formal preservation of abilities, but the loss of their social significance, a change in the nature of the individual,
their needs and motives for activity)
energy potential decrease (reduction of mental activity, productivity, need for
communication, etc.)
personality decline (the interests of individual are limited by the needs for pleasure)

activity with the loss of the possibility of contact with
others, the complete disappearance of interests and
motives.
(often combined with signs of general destruction of the body - physical exhaustion, trophic disorders
such as bedsores, dystrophy of internal organs, etc.).
9. THE DEVELOPMENT OF A SOMATIC DISEASE AND THE
RESPONSE OF INDIVIDUAL TO THE DISEASE.
THE CONCEPT OF THE INTERNAL IMAGE OF THE DISEASE.
Goldscheider (1926) R.A. Luria (1935)
Autoplastic image of the disease means
sensations, experiences and ideas a sick person
about his illness
Internal picture of the disease (IPD) – a complex of the
patient's experiences associated with the disease: general
well-being, sensations, perceptions, emotions, thoughts
about the disease
10. HISTORY
The external picture of the disease
(objective data that the doctor receives using special
research methods)
The internal picture of the disease
(experiences of the patient about the disease)
11. AUTOPLASTIC IMAGE OF THE DISEASE
(ACCORDING TO GOLDSCHEIDER-LURIA)
1. "SENSITIVE" LEVEL OF ILLNESS
based on the patient's feelings
2 . "INTELLECTUAL" ILLNESS LEVEL
the result of the patient's reflections on their physical condition
12. LEVELS OF IPD
• (motivational level) is
associated with a
certain attitude of the
patient to his disease
•(rational-informational level) is associated
with the patient's ideas and knowledge
about his disease, reflections on its
causes and consequences
• associated with various types
of emotional response to
individual symptoms, the
disease as a whole and its
consequences
• (level of sensations, sensory
level) - localization of pain
and other unpleasant
sensations, their intensity,
etc.

13. DISEASE MODEL
It IS A CONCEPT OF THE ETIOPATOGENESIS,
CLINIC, TREATMENT AND PROGNOSIS OF
THE DISEASE, WHICH DETERMINES THE
“SCOPE OF EXPERIENCES” AND THE
BEHAVIOR OF PATIENT IN GENERAL.
A REAL STATUS OF HEALTH
DISEASE MODELS
14. THE SCALE OF THE EXPERIENCE OF THE
DISEASE
Normonosognosia (adequate type of response) patients
correctly evaluate their condition and prospects, their
assessment coincides with the doctor's assessment.
Hypernosognosia - the tendency to overestimate the
significance of symptoms and / or the disease in general
Hyponosognosia - the tendency to underestimate the
significance of symptoms and / or the disease in general
Dysnognosia - distortion of perception and denial of the
presence of the disease and its symptoms for the purpose
of dissimulation or due to fear of its consequences
Anisognosia - a complete denial of the disease as such, is
typical for patients with alcoholism and cancer.
15. TYPES OF DISEASE REACTION
(ACCORDING TO THE CRITERION OF POSITION IN RELATION TO THE DISEASE)
Sthenic reaction– characterized by an active life
position of patient to treatment and examination
Asthenic reaction - characterized by a patient's
tendency to pessimism and suspiciousness
Rational reaction – characterized by a real
assessment of the situation and a rational escape
from frustration
16. TYPES OF PERSONAL RESPONSE TO A DISEASE
(ACCORDING TO THE CRITERION OF DOCTOR-PATIENT
RELATIONSHIP) (YAKUBOV B.A., 1982)
Friendly reaction.
It is typical for people with a developed intellect. They seem to become "assistant" of the
doctor, demonstrating compliance with the prescriptions, punctuality, attention, goodwill.
Calm reaction.
It is typical for people with stable emotional and volitional processes. They respond
adequately to all doctor's instructions, accurately perform medical and recreational activities,
and easily come into contact with medical personnel.
Unconscious reaction.
The reaction, having a pathological basis, in some cases plays the role of psychological
protection, and this form of protection should not always be eliminated, especially in severe
diseases with an unfavorable outcome.
Trace reaction.
Typical for people with low intelligence, they have expressive emotional reactions. Even if the
disease has a favorable outcome, they usually wait for a relapse of the disease. After the
illness, they are depressed and have hypochondria, they consider themselves incurable
patients.
17. TYPES OF PERSONAL RESPONSE TO A DISEASE
(ACCORDING TO THE CRITERION OF DOCTOR-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP)
Negative reaction.
Patients are in the power of prejudice. They are aggressive and distrustful, hardly
come into contact with the attending physician, do not attach serious importance to
his instructions and advice. They often have conflict with medical staff.
Panic reaction.
Patients are in the power of fear, easily suggestible, often inconsistent, treated at
the same time in different medical institutions, as if testing one doctor by another
doctor. Often they are treated by healers or use the Internet. Their actions are
inadequate, they are characterized by affective instability.
Destructive reaction
Patients ignoring all instructions of the attending physician. they do not want to
change their usual way of life, professional workload. This is accompanied by a
refusal to take medication, from treatment in a hospital.
18. CLASSIFICATION OF TYPES OF PERSONALITY
RESPONSE TO ILLNESS (A. LICHKO)
The classification has 12 psychotypes of potential patients and covers almost the entire spectrum
of possible reactions to the disease.
1. Harmonious psychotype (realistic, balanced). rational
2. Ergopathic (sthenic). "Escape from illness to work.“ social
3. Anosognosic (euphoric). "Denial disease». adaptation
are not broken
4. Anxiety-depressive and phobic type. the patient fantasizes about his illness.
5. hypochondriacal type. "Ouch! It's very painful!" adaptation
6. Neurasthenic. "Leave me! I feel bad!" is broken
7. Melancholic type. "Life is over!" "I don't want / cannot live".
8. Apathetic type. "I don't care!".
9. Sensitive type. Intense pain, shy, fussing all the time.
10. Egocentric (hysterical) type. "Everyone should do everything for me, I know how to treat me."
11. Paranoid type. “I know you doctors! You will always make a mistake!«
12. Aggressive type. An angry and gloomy silent man.

Positive consequences:
Protection mechanisms protect
the psyche from injury
Protection maintain the stability
of the personality against the
background of destabilizing

of psychological protection is
more pronounced when the
scale of the conflict that
threatens the integrity of the
individual is relatively small.

person to realize his
delusions about their own
character traits and motives
of behavior.

29. Ethics in interaction with PwD with
reduce mobility
• if the offer of help is accepted, you must ask what needs to be done and
follow the instructions clearly
• always ask if help is needed before giving it. Need to offer help if you need
to open a heavy door
• remember that a wheelchair is an inviolable space of a person. It is not
allowed to lean on it, push it, put your feet on it without permission, start
moving the stroller without the consent of the disabled person
• if permission has been obtained to move the wheelchair, it must first be
rolled slowly. The stroller picks up speed quickly, and an unexpected push can
cause you to lose balance.

испытывающими трудности при передвижении
Ethics in interaction with PwD with
visual impairment

The blind person must hold the accompanying person by the arm and walk half a
step behind. This helps the maintainer to respond more quickly to emerging
obstacles.
Rule 2
When moving up the stairs and when crossing the threshold, if it stands out in height,
the blind person should first be warned about the obstacle with a word or gesture, as
well as at the end of the descent or ascent of the stairs - indicating the last step.
