Abstract
This contribution is based on the grant project GAUK316722 which builds on the current research surveys done in the Czech Republic where the majority of authors addressed the psycholinguistic and statistical approach in language performance tests and provided a number of analytical tools due to their focus and work with specific subjects using language, their perceptual, cognitive skills and language intelligence, which are key aspects of research study research. The proposed research study follows up on the dissertation and diploma thesis of the main researcher of the project.
It expands it mainly with a specific focus on specific diagnostic tests and psychometric analysis options for proper revision and standardization for use in professional practice. The dissertation will focus on analytical methods for psychological diagnostic methods with a focus on literacy and language performance tests and their standardization.
The project also corresponds to the long tradition of the Department of Psychology, Faculty of Education, Charles University, whose area of interest is primarily issues of literacy, functional literacy and specific learning disabilities. A great advantage is the cooperation with leading experts on this topic working at the department.
The acquired knowledge can be transferred in this way to the relevant subjects provided by the Department of Psychology, both in the field of psychology (especially in the follow-up master's degree, in which future counselling experts in education are prepared, and in all teaching disciplines as well.
