Подготовка к трудовой деятельности молодежи с психическими нарушениями в рамках гастрономической модельной площадки (ГАМП): оценка эффективности программы обучения

Abstract

<p>This article presents a comprehensive study on the efficiency of a cooking skills training program for young adults with mental disabilities, conducted at the Gastronomic Model Platform (GAMP) of the Regional Non-commercial Organization "Center for Curative Pedagogy". The study hypothesized that this training would enhance the professional skills and life independence of students with mental disorders, facilitating successful employment and participation in work activities. Twenty-three GAMP students with varying levels of mental disabilities participated in a pre-post test study to assess changes in professional competencies and independence. The results confirmed the hypothesis regarding the improvement of professional skills during the GAMP training process (t(21)=-2,97; p=0,007). However, while indicators of independence significantly increased for some students, the overall hypothesis of increased independence was not statistically confirmed. This may be attributed to the fact that individuals with severe disabilities often show improvements in independence primarily in familiar environments and with the support of an accompanying person.</p>
