Abstract
Adolescents with musculoskeletal disorders are reported to experience difficulties in building relationships with peers, poorly adapt in a team, which contributes to their escape from life's difficulties into the virtual world and the gradual formation of computer addiction. With computer addiction, a child may have increased irritability, a tendency to illegal actions, which leads to a hostile perception of the surrounding social world. Their ability to express their thoughts, establish contacts and dialogues with other people in real life suffers. Against the background of social maladjustment with excessive enthusiasm for games, some schoolchildren develop unjustified aggression, cruelty; most of them do not know how to productively overcome difficulties. The purpose of the research is to identify the characteristics of resilience in adolescents with musculoskeletal disorders with different levels of computer addiction. The following diagnostic methods were used in the study: S. Maddi's Hardiness Survey (adapted by D. A. Leontiev, E. I. Rasskazova), Internet addiction test (T. A. Nikitina, A. Yu. Egorov). The sample comprised 30 participants. The data was analyzed using the methods of mathematical data processing (nonparametric statistical Kruskal-Wallis test, Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient). Research results showed that adolescents with musculoskeletal disorders are characterized by a lower level of resilience. They are willing to show more passive behavior and avoid stressful situations.
Highlights
Movement and displacement in space are one of the most important human functions
The counteraction of the child's personality to computer addiction is determined by the formation of the components of resilience, which allows the person, especially an adolescent with musculoskeletal disorders (MSD), to actively and constructively behave in different life situations
At the first stage of the research, we studied the parameters of computer addiction and resilience of adolescents in the experimental and control groups
Summary
With all the variety of congenital and acquired diseases and injuries of the musculoskeletal system, most adolescents have similar psychological problems such as limited activity, emotional sufferings due to pain, and the impossibility of full-fledged communication (Khazova, 2013; Tokarskaya, Tenkacheva, & Tomilova, 2019) This way, the quality of life gradually decreases (Antonova, 2020). Adolescents with musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) were reported to not know how to build relationships with peers and poorly adapt in a team due to the lack of social experience and interaction with others This contributes to the escape from life's difficulties into the virtual world of the computer and the gradual formation of computer addiction. The counteraction of the child's personality to computer addiction is determined by the formation of the components of resilience, which allows the person, especially an adolescent with MSD, to actively and constructively behave in different life situations
