Abstract. The aim of this study was to determine the possible type of spatial perception in persons with mental disorders to understand the tactics of building therapeutic landscapes. Materials and methods. For this purpose were selected 16 patients of the psychiatric hospital, identical in sex and age, but differing in the degree of emotional and intellectual development. The studies were carried out using a standard graphical test on the image of a three — dimensional figure-cube. Results. The obtained data indicate the diversity and alternation of perspectives at different distances from the patient.
Keywords: mental disorders, garden therapy, therapeutic landscapes, impaired perception of space, coefficient of perspective expansion
