The growing need to preserve and restore the mental health of Ukrainians requires the development and implementation of psychometric tools capable of determining the priority areas of psychological interventions and evaluating their results. The Interpersonal Problem Inventory is one of the world's most popular tools used before, during, and after therapy; it has proven efficacy across cultural, age, and clinical samples. The aim of the work is to adapt the tool into Ukrainian and create its abbreviated (screening) version. Two studies were conducted. 786 respondents aged 17–70 took part in the first, 79% of whom were women. The factor structure of the methodology was analyzed, the statements for the screening version were selected, and the psychometric properties of the newly created instrument were checked. The second study (179 participants) was aimed at checking the stability of the factor structure and retest reliability of the technique. The results of the first diagnostic section showed the need to revise the content of the methodology to ensure compliance of its factor structure with the original theoretical model. The data ipsatization procedure made it possible to obtain the expected circumplex structure from four bipolar dimensions (the eight factors that make up the subscales of the technique explained 70% of the total variance of the variables). The scales of the screening version of the IIR-16 have a high or satisfactory level of internal consistency and homogeneity, except for the subscales "Difficult to be persistent" and "Difficult to be involved". Indicators of interpersonal problems are correlated with evaluations of the functioning of the interpersonal sphere and the psychological well-being of the individual, obtained with the help of other questionnaires: social distance, search for emotional support, dependent decision-making style, trust in people and the world, etc. All this allows us to conclude that the screening version of the Interpersonal Problems Questionnaire IIR-16 is a reliable, valid and informative tool that can be recommended for use in counseling and psychotherapy. 

Problem Statement: The article investigates the effectiveness of integrative approaches to the psychological rehabilitation of children with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) arising from traumatic events such as military conflicts, domestic violence, and natural disasters. PTSD in children is a serious mental disorder that can lead to prolonged and profound consequences for their mental, emotional, and social well-being. The research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration among psychotherapists, educators, healthcare professionals, and social services to provide comprehensive support for children and promote their full recovery and reintegration into society. Methodology: The study analyzes the effectiveness of various therapeutic techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), art therapy, and family therapy, in creating a comprehensive rehabilitation program. The research is based on a sample of 50 children aged 6 to 14, categorized by sources of trauma: military conflicts, domestic violence, and other traumatic events. Data were collected through surveys, interviews with children and their parents, and clinical observations. Results: The study shows a significant reduction in anxiety and depression levels, improved social adaptation, and decreased aggression in children after rehabilitation. Parents also noted positive changes in their children's emotional state and behavior. The data indicate the high effectiveness of integrative approaches to the rehabilitation of children with PTSD. Individualization of therapeutic programs is a key element of success, as it addresses the unique needs of each child. The research underscores the need for further development and implementation of integrative programs that combine various therapeutic methods to achieve maximum therapeutic effect. This work also highlights the importance of a multidisciplinary approach, involving collaboration among psychotherapists, educators, healthcare professionals, and social services. Such an approach ensures comprehensive support for children who have experienced traumatic events and promotes their full recovery and reintegration into society. Overall, the study's results demonstrate the potential of integrative approaches to the rehabilitation of children with PTSD and the need for their continued study and implementation in practical activities. 

The article is devoted to the study of the features of self-attitude and manifestations of codependent personality behavior. In today's difficult conditions, the problem of self-esteem is particularly acute. The work includes a theoretical analysis of the concept of self-attitude, its link with self-esteem, as well as the study of the connection of the phenomenon with the manifestations of codependent behavior of the individual. Empirical research was conducted among people aged 18 to 52 years, different in terms of gender, specialty of study, professional employment, family situation and social status. The following methods were used in the work: Spahn and Fisher Codependency Scale, Weinhold Self-Esteem Questionnaire, Self-Attitude Test-Questionnaire. The results of the study were processed using the methods of mathematical statistics. According to the results of the study, it was found that the majority of respondents have a moderate tendency to codependent behavior, other participants almost equally divided between the categories of strong tendency to these patterns and its absence. It was found that people who do not have a tendency to codependent behavior patterns have high self-esteem in most areas of life. On the contrast, people with a moderate tendency to codependent behavior patterns have low self-esteem in several areas of life, individuals with a strong tendency to codependent behavior have low self-esteem in various life areas. The qualities of self-attitude of individuals were determined depending on the tendency to display codependent behavior. Individuals with a strong tendency have a significantly low level of expression of self-respect, self-sympathy, expectation of a positive attitude, self-confidence and a high level of self-blame. People with a moderate tendency of patterns to codependent behavior have pronounced level of self-esteem, self-acceptance, self-understanding, self-consistency, liking and interest in themselves. However, the expectation of a positive relationship from others, as well as the feeling of confidence in one's own abilities are found at lower levels, they can be prone to self-blame. Individuals without codependent behavior patterns have significant higher pronounced self-respect, self-sympathy, interest in themselves, and self-understanding. The results of the research have significant practical value and can be used for further scientific exploration and improvement of psychological assistance programs. 

Within the Euro-American scholarship, the theme of attachment has received considerable attention, in the context of the relationship between children and their parents or caregivers. Attachment can occur in diverse forms. It can be secure, insecure, healthy, or unhealthy. This work explores the theme of asakti from an indigenous perspective, as elaborated in the text of the Bhagavad Gita. Asakti interferes with the movement along the path of self-realization. The analysis in this study yielded five core themes: (i) asakti is a combination of Raga (approach), Dwesha (aversion) and Ahamkara (ego focus); (ii) unregulated asakti toward material things leads to intellectual, mental, and spiritual decay; (iii) asakti is linked with the operation of three gunas, namely Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas; (iv) the control and regulation of asakti would lead to attainment of a state of anasakti (or non-attachment); and (v) asakti in the form of devotion and dedication (Prapatti/Sharangati) to higher consciousness or God frees one from bondage and the negative effects of attachment. It is concluded that anasakti contributes to bring peace and happiness. The movement from asakti to anasakti can be integrated with health interventions, such as counseling and therapy.

This study aimed to explore healthy, term neonates’ behavioural and physiological responses to music using frame-by-frame analysis of their movements (Experiment 1; N = 32, 0–3 days old) and heart rate measurements (Experiment 2; N = 66, 0–6 days old). A ‘happy’ and ‘sad’ music was first validated by independent raters for their emotional content from a large pool of children’s songs and lullabies, and the effect of the emotions in these two music pieces and a control, no-music condition was compared. The results of the frame-by-frame behavioural analysis showed that babies had emotion-specific responses across the three conditions. Happy music decreased their arousal levels, shifting from drowsiness to sleep, and resulted in longer latencies in other forms of self-regulatory behaviour, such as sucking. The decrease in arousal was accompanied by heart rate deceleration. In the sad music condition, relative ‘stillness’ was observed, and longer leg stretching latencies were measured. In both music conditions, longer latencies of fine motor finger and toe movements were found. Our findings suggest that the emotional response to music possibly emerges very early ontogenetically as part of a generic, possibly inborn, human musicality.
