In the context of the modern education a leading role is allotted to the pedagogical ability to respect and stimulate every pupil’s free choice as a unique code to interpretation of knowledge. Working on fables at elementary school provides similar environment for pedagogical interaction. The specific effects of its performance – those of allusion and attitude are not only an exponent of interpretative skills for artistic recreation of a fable. They are also an original feedback of the pupil, which favours an opening of his reflexive skills and premises a development of his selfeffectiveness.

In this paper I will present the role of kinetotherapy in diminishing the physical deficiency of the lower limbs - genu recurvatum, the importance of practicing exercises on a regular basis, the importance of the subject's collaboration in the recovery process and the effect of the results of therapy.By the fact that the deficiency is not painful, as long as it does not change, and there are no complications, is required to be corrected especially for appearance.The best results come from preschoolers, followed by adolescents and then adults, with the recovery program having a greater number of repetitions of positions and exercises over a longer period of time because keeping results under control is more cumbersome , precisely because the processes of growth and development of the organism have come to an end.I want to show that to minimize and even reduce total deficiency genu recurvatum no need to resort to sophisticated equipment, costly and difficultInternational Journal of Educational Theory and Practice (IJETP)Volume 2/ Issue 3/ 201564to access, but enough simple exercises executed correctly with appropriate dosage.

In this paper we want to present the role of physiotherapy in the recovery of children with neuro-psycho-motor.Since this pathology is a problem that could not be eliminated despite the tremendous progress made by modern medicine, these children need in addition to applying existing disability-specific methods and acceptance, appreciation, they need to grow and develop.Therefore Robănescu stated that the evolution of a child deficient recoverable or partially recoverable depends largely on the family as it grows and develops. By this statement we want to emphasize that with IMC child development includes not only the use of existing disability-specific methods and integrating the child in an educational environment whether in a schools or at home. Integration into the community is a very important step for children with disabilities because by doing so they call the child a chance to grow and to create a better social future to the detriment deficiencies they have. We think that there should be no restriction for these children to develop and lead a normal life, the contrary would have the skills that they have to be exploited, to be educated in ,, normality’’ (Elena Căciulan, 2011) and help them enjoy the privileges enjoyed a normal child. The harmony of family life, ,, how parents understand that the child must be helped, guided and encouraged always will be the pillars on which to build the education of child with cerebral palsy” (N., 1976). Therefore,we want to check whether the means physical therapy can help in recovering cerebral palsy in children with tiny cerebral motor and if they give beneficial results on maintaining and increasing the amplitude of articulation, reduce spasticity, maintain and / or increase the excitability of muscle, maintaining memory kinesthetic and the movements.

The medical clown is a healthcare practitioner whose character is strictly associated with the performer’s own personality. In this study, the relationships between the level of sensory processing sensitivity (SPS), caregiving strategies and humour in Italian and Israeli clowns were examined. Participants were 159 medical clowns (97 Italian and 62 Israeli), ranging from 22 to 74 years of age, who completed a demographic questionnaire, the self-reported Highly Sensitive Person Scale, the Caregiving System Scale and the BenCor. Results showed that a higher SPS was related to higher hyperactivation and deactivation, and that hyperactivation was related to lower benevolent humour and greater corrective humour. Hyperactivation negatively predicts benevolent humour but positively predicts corrective humour, beyond the effect of SPS. Deactivation had no relationship to either benevolent or corrective humour. The results are also discussed in reference to the two culture groups and to previous studies conducted with general populations.

Cerebral lateralization is associated with differences in brain organization and handedness is seen as its main marker. In order to verify the hypothesis that differences in brain organization tend to be associated with different patterns of interests and abilities, 379 normal left-handed subjects (221 women, aged 18 – 72 years) and 366 normal right-handed subjects (256 women, aged 18 – 72 years) were interviewed about their interests and special abilities. The following interests and special abilities were studied: singing, playing an instrument, dancing, painting, acting, foreign language skills, sports skills, and writing poetry. The results in the left-handers group showed that there is a significantly higher percentage of subjects with a pronounced interest in playing an instrument. In the group of right-handers, the study demonstrated a significantly higher percentage of subjects specifically interested in learning foreign languages. With respect to the abilities, a significantly higher incidence of participants with vocal, instrumental, sports, and foreign language skills was found in the left-handers’ group. Differences in functional cerebral organization between left- and right-handers were suggested as possible explanation for the relationship of handedness with special abilities.

Gelotophobia, or the fear of being laughed at, has been described as an inability to enjoy humour and laughter in social interaction. A number of studies have shown its increased levels under various mental disorders. Gelotophobia in psychiatric patients may appear either as a primary syndrome, or as a secondary disorder connected to the patient’s reaction to their social position (self-stigmatisation). In turn, self-stigmatisation is closely related to the personality of the patient and, in particular, to their attitudes to illness. Since the fear of being laughed at has been studied within both the clinical concept and the continual model of individual differences, the question of differentiation between normal and pathological fear of being laughed at is topical, while borderline groups are of particular interest. The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between gelotophobia, attitudes to illness, and self-stigmatisation in patients with minor, non-psychotic mental disorders, as well as those with brain injuries, who also had mild mental disorders, without having the status of psychiatric patients. The sample consisted of 73 patients with non-psychotic mental disorders, and 30 patients with brain injuries. The methods used included PhoPhiKat-30, ISMI-9 (Internalized Stigma of Mental Illness Inventory), and TOBOL (Types of the Attitudes to Disease). The results revealed at least a slight level of gelotophobia in 31% patients with non-psychotic mental disorders, and 20% in those with brain injuries. Gelotophobia correlated with certain types of attitude to illness in each group. Subjects displaying high levels of gelotophobia were in general characterised by disadvantageous attitudes to illness. In the group of psychiatric patients, gelotophobia was associated with self-stigmatisation, whereas in the group of neurological patients it was not. Thus, in this study gelotophobia was examined for the first time in patients with non-psychotic mental disorders, as well as in those with brain injuries. Differentmechanisms of gelotophobia development were suggested for the two groups.

This article is focused on the differences between shame and guilt examined through a psychological perspective. The purpose of this analysis developed here is to attain conceptual clarity about what is distinctive about shame and guilt. We claim that shame is erroneously included in the category of “moral emotions” and that, paradoxically, there is nothing moral in it. To this end, we emphasize that shame is produced by the failure to achieve a certain minimum, which is social in its nature. It is therefore connected with low demands on one’s self and low self-esteem. Guilt, on the other hand, is based on the failure to achieve a subjective maximum and an ideal, so it tends to be observed in personalities that exhibit high demands upon themselves and a high self-esteem.
