It was shown that the average values of the scores of clinical scales (the scale of self-esteem of Beck depression for adolescents, the scale of obsessive-compulsive disorders of Yale-Brown) corresponded to the level at which there was no current psychopathological symptomatology. A family factor study using the FACES-3 technique revealed that in most patients the family was disconnected (except for patients with scleroderma and acne), which fits into the notion of conditionally adaptive family functioning. Family adaptation corresponded to a chaotic level, related to disadaptive forms of family functioning (except for patients with alopecia). The average value of the "Self-Body Satisfaction Scale" (SHUST) (80.5%) corresponded to the high index, which indicates a sufficient degree of satisfaction with one's own body. Lower scores were noted in the evaluation of segments such as "skin" (corresponding to the pathology profile of the patients examined), "face" and "teeth." However, there were no statistically significant differences between the different segments according to the Wilcoxon rank criteria. (P> 0.05). The average value of the scale "Assessment of the image of one's own body" (OOST) (median -12.0, wallmark-6) indicates an insignificant tendency to negative assessment of one's own body (this is not critical and diagnostic significance). The study of the correlation relationship (rank correlation of Spearman) revealed that the patients' age was inversely correlated with the mean value of the OST scale (ρ = -0.436, p = 0.055), that is, the positive self-body score in adolescents increased with age. The sum of points on the Beck scale moderately correlated back to the "Cohesion" scale (ρ = -0.460, р = 0.041) and SHUST (ρ = -0.610, р = 0.004). Thus, depressive symptoms in adolescents with cutaneous pathology are more pronounced with a high level of cohesion between family members and low satisfaction with one's own body.psychosomatic disorders in adolescentsmental disorders in dermatological diseases in adolescentsfamily adaptation and cohesionbody image of adolescentsпсихосоматические расстройства у подростковпсихические расстройства при дерматологических заболеваниях у подростковсемейная адаптация и сплоченностьобраз собственного тела у подростков1.Антропов Ю.
