У статті розглядаються психологічні особливості дітей з ДЦП та результати дерматогліфічних досліджень
як маркерів схильності до ДЦП і за допомогою яких можна діагностувати хворобу на ранніх стадіях.

The article deals with the psychological features of children with cerebral palsy and the results of dermatological
studies as markers of predisposition to infantile cerebral palsy. The assumption is made that the genetic determination of the
complex embryonic structure of the ectoderm causes the complex structure of its derivatives, in particular – the morphology of the
central nervous system and the crest of the skin. Thus, at this moment a significant amount of experimental data on the correlation of
dermatological characteristics and various psychophysiological parameters of a person has been accumulated. The results of the
analysis of finger patterns showed that, both in boys and in girls with cerebral palsy, the number of arches in comparison with healthy
ones is almost twice as large. Most often, they occur in sick children on the index fingers of the left and right hands. In girls with
infantile cerebral palsy, there is a decrease in the number of hinges on both hands compared with healthy ones by 10.8%. In boys,
the number of loops in comparison with healthy does not change. Radial loops in girls with cerebral palsy often occur on the right
hand on the first finger, on the left – on the second fingers. In boys with pediatric cerebral paralysis, radial loops on the right hand
occur on the first and second fingers, and on the left – the fifth. In girls with cerebral palsy, there is an increase in the number of
spirals compared with healthy girls by 29%. In boys, the number of spirals in comparison with healthy people is reduced by 4%. The
analysis of individual psychological peculiarities of children with cerebral palsy gave the opportunity to highlight the main features
that accompany the development of the disease and become a psychological component of the pathogenesis of the disease. So,
children with cerebral palsy have the following properties: extraversion, rationality, sensory. In addition, boys have higher T-logic
indicators, and girls F-ethics.
