摘要:
The present invention relates to methods for correction of psychological conditions in individuals, as well as to passenger ships for carrying out such methods and may be used in psychological practice and in the fields of medicine and shipbuilding. The technical effect attained by the floating centre according to the present invention is restoration of mental equilibrium, self-reliance, improvement of social adaptation and reaching feelings of self-affirmation. According to the invention, an individual is placed in a spatially isolated passenger cabin at a floating centre for continuous stay during an individually chosen number of days ensuring his/her visual and spatial isolation. Under these conditions an individual is subject to strict daily regime and tests. His/her diet is modified and controlled. At the same time, an environment for physiological improvement and intellectual development is created. A psycho-physiological condition of an individual is monitored remotely with the use of physiological sensors and locally by visual inspection, and the conditions are gradually changed thus increasing the degree of individual's acclimation. The structure of the ship serves its purpose. The hull and erection are made as a single structure having the closed space isolated from the boards by longitudinal partitions, this space being divided into four isolated zones where the rows of cabins are situated. Above the overall top surface of the closed space, a glass-enclosed promenade deck is situated. Cabins are situated in each isolated zone on truncated decks. Between the cabins there is a corridor having the height equal to the sum of heights of all truncated decks with the cabins.
