has shown that excess body fat or a high BMI in the general population relates to metabolic, functional, genetic, or oncological problems. Nevertheless, in the last two decades, several studies have pointed to the fact that some types of obesity need not be based on a high BMI. One of the most discussed is normal-weight obesity. Normal-weight obesity, characterized by excessive body fat combined with average body mass index (BMI), seems to have serious health outcomes from childhood and, therefore, is a new challenge in the methodology of obesity. In a series of studies, we demonstrated concrete differences in anthropometry and body composition profile, as well as differences in aspects of physical fitness between normal-weight obese, overweight obese, and normal-weight non-obese children from preschool age till middle school. Our findings showed that normal-weight obese children were as bad, or even worse, in physical fitness level than obese peers, pointing to the necessity of developing a unified methodology for identifying normal-weight obese (hidden) children for the pediatrics system.

Abstract: One of the priority areas of child and adolescent clinical psychology is the prevention of deviant behavior. In the conditions of the digitalization of society, deviant behavior of a teenager is the result of a complex interaction of various factors. These factors are often defects in school and family education, revealing the unfavorable features of his immediate environment in the family. The purpose of the work: to determine the psychological characteristics, emotional state, and suicidal risk of adolescents in the conditions of the digitalization of society. Research methods. Questionnaire of suicide risk. Pathocharacterological diagnostic questionnaire (PDO) for adolescents A.E. Lichko (1970). Questionnaire of suicidal risk by A.G. Shmelev, modified by T.N. Razuvaeva. Methodology for diagnosing socio-psychological adaptation by K. Rogers and R. Diamond. Sample: 50 adolescents from secondary school No. 37 in Samara, aged 14 to 16 years (29 boys and 21 girls). The main results of the study. Adolescents with a high suicidal risk had high rates of affectivity, failure, social pessimism, breaking down cultural barriers, maximalism, and negative time perspective. Characteristics such as labile, psychasthenic and sensitive prevailed. Adolescents were dominated by a negative attitude towards the past (rS= - 0.644*), towards themselves (rS= - 0.696*) and towards superior persons (rS= - 0.774**). Values of sincerity were also at a low level (rS= - 0.698*). In the conditions of the digitalization of society, the prevention of suicidal risk is aimed at early diagnosis and screening of socio-psychological factors of significance. The mathematical regression model revealed: SR = 3.952 + (0.593*D) + (0.585*SP) + (0.391*M) - (0.179*C) + (1.087*IS) - (0.096*A) + (1.517*HBC), for demonstrativeness, pessimism, maximalism, sensitive type of accentuation. Currently, the behavior of a teenager is the result of a complex interaction of socio-psychological factors. The digital socialization of a teenager plays a significant role as it facilitates interactions with a combination of factors that impede social and psychological adaptation. Psychotherapeutic work with adolescents is a complex undertaking that requires specialist knowledge and skills in the field of clinical and psychological diagnostics and individual, group, and family psychotherapy.

Abstract: Obesity is defined as a world epidemic disease negatively affecting human health. Research has shown that excess body fat or a high BMI in the general population relates to metabolic, functional, genetic, or oncological problems. Nevertheless, in the last two decades, several studies have pointed to the fact that some types of obesity need not be based on a high BMI. One of the most discussed is normal-weight obesity. Normal-weight obesity, characterized by excessive body fat combined with average body mass index (BMI), seems to have serious health outcomes from childhood and, therefore, is a new challenge in the methodology of obesity. In a series of studies, we demonstrated concrete differences in anthropometry and body composition profile, as well as differences in aspects of physical fitness between normal-weight obese, overweight obese, and normal-weight non-obese children from preschool age till middle school. Our findings showed that normal-weight obese children were as bad, or even worse, in physical fitness level than obese peers, pointing to the necessity of developing a unified methodology for identifying normal-weight obese (hidden) children for the pediatrics system.
