The article deals with the investigation of the emotional attachment to parents of children with adequate and inadequate age and gender identity. Characteristics of the age and gender identity in children of preschool age (with adequate and inadequate age and gender identity) were established. Similar and distinctive features of the emotional attachment to parents of children with adequate and inadequate age and gender identity were revealed. We have also determined the presence and specificity of the relationship between characteristics of the emotional attachment to their parents and the age and gender identity in children of preschool age.
