Methods for the development of voluntary regulation and control over activity
a set of educational and psychological strategies and methods aimed at developing the child’s ability to consciously control his behavior and mental activity, as well as improving the skills of managing emotions and making decisions, which allows him to effectively adapt to various situations. This model is based on the training of the brain’s executive functions, including planning, self-control, emotional regulation, and time and effort management, as fundamental to the development of self-regulation and the ability to perform organized tasks.
1) Psychological games – the use of activities and games specifically designed to strengthen executive skills, such as planning, problem-solving and attention, in a fun way that encourages the child’s active participation.
2) Problem-solving training – teaching the child systematic ways of thinking about everyday or learning problems, analyzing options and choosing the most appropriate solutions, which increases his ability to control his behavior and make informed decisions.
3) Positive reinforcement techniques – the use of rewards and recognition to reinforce desired behaviors and develop positive habits of performance and self-discipline.
4) Memory and attention training – programs and activities aimed at strengthening concentration, selective attention and working memory, which helps to improve the ability to perform complex tasks and organize thoughts and behaviors.
