The article presents the results of an empirical study of the intellectual and creative abilities and cognitive-activity style of students through factor analysis. First of all, we made a review of scientific works relating to intellectual and creative abilities, cognitive style, cognitive-activity style, and general learning styles. During the study, the following psychodiagnostic methods were remotely conducted to determine the intellectual and creative abilities and cognitive-activity style of 80 students of Almaty universities aged 18–22 years: “Structure of Intelligence” by R. Amthauer, “Diagnostics of Personal Creativity” by E.E. Tunic, Torrance Creativity Test and L. Rebecca’s “Identification of Cognitive Activity Style”. Factor analysis (Varimax rotation) in the SPSS program was used to determine the dimensions at the intersection of these variables. As a result, a total of 29 scales were collected into the following 8 component scales and received the following names: “cognitive-activity style”, “systemic thinking”, “intuitive ingenuity”, “persistence”, “verbal intelligence and combinatorial thinking”, “innovation”, “concentration of attention”, “systematic imagination”. These scale components were described according to their structure. The results of the study can be used by researchers in the field of educational psychology, school teachers, and university professors to determine the characteristics of students receiving and processing cognitive information.

Clinical and special psychology
The article is devoted to the study of the theoretical aspect of the influence of personality anxiety on the development of eating disorders. It is known that eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa or paroxysmal overeating are very often comorbid with other mental disorders. These disorders may include (but are not limited to) depression, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. As we can see from the list, most often anxiety goes hand in hand with eating disorders, which is expressed in generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder and to some extent obsessive-compulsive disorder. Despite the fact that many scientific studies have been conducted to prove this relationship, many of them suffer from methodological problems that limit the usefulness of the results obtained.
In pursuit of reducing the severity of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the Intensive, Interactive, and Individual (3i) intervention method employs rigorous developmental play therapy. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 12 children engaged in the 3i approach over a 3-month period to evaluate alterations in ASD severity and identify potential influencing factors at follow-up. Systematic assessment of ASD severity using the childhood autism rating scale (CARS) and autism diagnosis interview-revised (ADI-R) was performed on 25 patients commencing 3i intervention between September and December of 2023. Of these, 12 patients (average age: 4) underwent a second evaluation at the second month of follow up. Statistical comparison via paired student’s t-tests revealed noteworthy reductions in CARS and ADI-R scores after 2 months of 3i intervention, showcasing declines of 10%, 21%, 22.5%, and 20% in interaction, communication, and repetitive behavior subscores, respectively. Approximately 34% and 40.7% of participants shifted to lower ASD severity categories based on CARS scale and ADI-R interview, respectively. Multiple linear regression models demonstrated that higher treatment intensity (exceeding 10 hours per week) correlated significantly with greater improvements in the ADI-R interaction score. Patients initially classified as verbal subjects displayed better outcomes in CARS, ADI-R interaction, and ADI-R communication scores. Additionally, older patients exhibited more substantial improvements in the ADI-R interaction score. Nevertheless, no substantial impact was observed concerning gender, ASD severity, or comorbidities at baseline. This study, involving 12 children, suggests that 3i therapy yields significant reductions in ASD severity while enhancing interaction, communication, and repetitive behaviors. Future investigations incorporating control groups are imperative to gauge the comparative efficacy of 3i play therapy against alternative interventions.
