Popis: The correlation of the characteristics of academic adaptation and cognitive functions of students with disabilities will make it possible to develop the best strategies in implementing the principle of equal educational opportunities in higher educational institutions for all students. The purpose of this study is to analyze the relationship between the characteristics of academic adaptation and the cognitive functions of students with disabilities and without health restrictions. It is assumed that there is a specificity of cognitive functions and academic adaptation of students with HIA and without restrictions that contribute to academic adaptation and academic success. The study involved 419 students, including 32 (7.8%) students with disabilities. The following methods and techniques were used. The components of academic adaptation were measured using the academic adaptation scale (Shamionov R.M., Grigoriev M.V., Grinina E.S., Sozonnik A.V.). Methods included in the Practice-Moscow State University system were used to evaluate cognitive functions. To study the features of student thinking, the test "Complex analogies" was used, which allows you to identify verbal abilities (thinking by analogy). The assessment of the ability to concentrate and switch attention was carried out using the test "Red-black tables" (F.D. Gorbov). Assessment of students' logical thinking was performed using the Quantitative Relationships test. To evaluate the formal logical abilities and abilities for cognitive learning of students, the Standard Progressive Raven Matrices technique was used. Socio-demographic indicators were measured using the developed questionnaire. As a result of the study, the similarity of indicators of personal, emotional-evaluation, cognitive and motivational components of academic adaptation was established. The severity of psychophysiological (t=3.25; p
