The article presents the results of an empirical study of proactive coping behaviour in primary school pupils. The problem of proactive coping behaviour in primary school age is considered, the basic personal properties and qualities associated with its development (forecasting, ontogenetic refl ection, understanding of the categories of time) are determined. The question of the relationship of forecasting and understanding of a child’s temporal perspective (categories of past, present, future) from the point of view of the formation of ontogenesis of proactive coping is discussed. Positive correlations between the styles of proactive coping behaviours and the personality characteristics of the child (forecasting, refl ection of past experience) areestablished. It has been established that in primary school age, proactive and refl ective coping is almost formed, depending on the emotional support of signifi cant adults and the amount of information support. The positive correlation betweenemotional support and age is particularly noted. Clustering of the research data allowed the author to identify and describe three types of proactive coping behaviour of children (preventive-refl ective, negative-proactive, positive-proactive), which differ in their level of forecasting, refl ect on past experience and the prevalence of a specifi c style of proactive coping.
