THE MEANS OF BEHAVIOR REGULATION IN PRESC HOOLERS

The construction and regulation of child behavior depends on the means ( the structure which unites cultural tools and actions) used by a ch ild in the process of the orientation in reality. The analysis of anti cipation of fairy-tales events by 5-6 years old children makes it poss ible to find three main means, three structures of the orientation. Th ey are the normative-stabilized structure (the use of the norms), the sense-formative structure (the construction of child's personal positi on regarding reality) and dialectical-transformative structure (the op erations with opposites).
