Abstract
In the modern world, the use of digital technologies in various spheres of human life is widespread. The digital environment allows the subjects of education to make the process of acquiring knowledge more interesting and effective. We were interested in the topic of the impact of digitalization not only on the intellectual, but also emotional, spiritual and moral development of children.
The purpose of our research is to identify the relationship between the emotional and spiritual and moral development of preschool children in the conditions of digitalization.
In the course of the study, we selected diagnostics aimed at determining the level of emotional and spiritual and moral development. The first include techniques such as the Lusher color test and "Unfinished sentences", the second – techniques "Losing lottery" and "Plot pictures". Diagnostics were selected taking into account the age and individual characteristics of children.
As a result of the study, we noticed that with repeated diagnosis, the children's indicators improved. In this regard, it can be concluded that the use of digital technologies has a positive effect on the emotional and spiritual and moral development of preschool children. This is because children are interested in a new format of conveying information and learning life lessons.
Thus, the hypothesis of our study was confirmed.
