It is well established that parents’ idea of the child’s and their own health is one of the main factors determining the specifics and effectiveness of preventive measures aimed at preserving and improving the child’s health. Many studies show the importance of identifying the psychological mechanisms that underlie the child’s subjective attitude to his or her health — these mechanisms are currently labelled as the ‘internal picture of health’ (IPH) in Russian-language studies.
Our study focuses on the specific features of the IPH in preschool age, as well as on identifying the possible relationships between the IPH of children and their parents.
The study involved 30 children aged 5–6 years and 30 parents. The IPH in children was measured using the following methods: Express Diagnostics of a Child Method (Nikolaeva et al. 2015), Health and Illness Method (Vasil’eva, Filatov 2001), and Attitude to Health Questionnaire (Berezovskaya 2011). The parents’ attitude to health was measured using the Attitude to Health Questionnaire (Berezovskaya 2011) and Express Diagnostics of Parents (Nikolaeva et al. 2015).
A computerized method of memorizing visual stimuli (Razumnikova, Savinykh 2016) was used to assess the volume of and interference in working memory.
The study revealed that 44% of preschoolers have a high level of development of the IPH. Most of the preschoolers demonstrated a high level of the attitude to health (69% of respondents), while most of the parents, an average level (86% of respondents). We established that there is a relationship between the level of parental attitude to health and the IPH level in their children. It was also found that the effect of proactive interference is positively correlated with the results of the Health and Disease Method.
