Dependence of a child's emotional attitude to characters of a fairy tale on its composition
(RESUME)

The experimental study described in the paper looked at one of the aspects of influence of a fairy tale on development of ethic standards in preschool children. The study demonstrated interdependence between a child's emotional attitude to the fairy tale characters, which is a necessary condition for acquisition of ethic standards, and composition of the fairy tale. The study proves that destruction of the traditional composition of a fairy tale brings about incongruity between the child's emotional attitude and objective moral characteristics of the characters, which may lead to general moral disorientation.
