4 points - the child performs the task according to the verbal instruction; interested in the final result (in most cases This straight continuous line); the leading hand is clearly defined, the coordination of the actions of both hands is observed.

According to the sum of points, the examined child can be assigned to one of four groups.

First group(10-12 points) - these are children who are not guided by the instructions in their actions, do not understand the purpose of the task, and therefore do not strive to complete it. They are not ready to cooperate with an adult; not understanding the purpose of the task, they act inadequately. Moreover, this group of children is not ready to act adequately even under conditions of imitation.

The indicators of the children of this group testify to a deep trouble in their intellectual development. These children need to form an emotional contact with an adult. Emotional communication between an adult and a child arises on the basis of joint actions, which should be accompanied by a friendly smile and an affectionate voice. An adult should gently touch the child, stroke him, take his hand, etc.

These children must be taught to understand an elementary instruction, to perform an action in accordance with a verbal instruction, consisting of a single word denoting an action. At the same time, it is necessary to teach children to understand the purpose of the action; to develop in them the actions of grasping with two hands, with one hand; develop attention, gaze fixation, eye tracking of a moving object.

In addition, these children should be physical exercise, focused on the development of all basic movements, as well as general developmental exercises aimed at strengthening the muscles of the back, coordination of movements, development of balance.

When teaching children of this group, the main methods are joint actions of a child with an adult, imitation of the actions of an adult.

To the second group(13–23 points) include children who cannot complete the task on their own. They hardly come into contact with adults, act without taking into account the properties of objects. In the nature of their actions, there is a desire to achieve a certain result, therefore, chaotic actions are characteristic of them, and in the future - refusal to complete the task.

In a learning setting, when an adult asks to perform an imitation task, many of them cope. However, after training, the children of this group cannot independently complete the task, which indicates that the principle of action remained unaware of them. At the same time, they are indifferent to the result of their activities.

In this group of children, it is necessary to form ways of assimilation of social experience. The first condition for this is the formation of cooperation between the child and the adult. The basis of such cooperation is, on the one hand, the emotional contact of the adult with the child, and on the other hand, the correct definition of the method of setting educational and upbringing tasks for the child. It is important to develop in children the ability to imitate the actions of an adult, the ability to understand and use gestural instructions and pointing gestures, the ability to work according to the model and according to verbal instructions.

A special place in the correctional work with these children should be occupied by physical education. It is aimed at the timely development of motor skills, abilities and physical qualities, at the development of interest in various types of motor activity available to the child.

At the same time, attention should be paid to the improvement of manual motor skills, the development of the leading hand, the coordination of the actions of both hands, as well as the development of small movements of the hands.

The central task of working with this group of children is the formation of guidelines for face-to-face cognitive activity: the development of practical orientation to the properties and qualities of objects, the formation of targeted trials, practical fitting, and then visual correlation. The main thing at the same time is to remember that the development of perception comes from the ability to distinguish objects, their properties, attitudes towards their perception based on the image, and then to the fixation of the image in the word, that is, to the appearance of an image-representation.

In the future, corrective work on the development of orienting-cognitive activity should be aimed at forming the relationship between the main components of mental activity: action, word and image.

One of the main areas of work with these children is the development of speech. It is carried out in the course of the entire life of the child and in special classes where specific tasks are solved: the development of communication, cognitive and regulatory functions.

In addition, the main correctional task in working with these children is the formation gaming activity and prerequisites for productive activities (drawing, design).

Children need to form an interest in didactic and plot toys, play actions with these toys, the ability to play next to their peers, and later together.

Given all of the above, it must be remembered that all these children need to form the correct behavior, taking into account a certain situation, as well as some personality traits of each child, where the main attention is paid to such qualities as mutual assistance and responsiveness. This possibility is ensured by the creation of a positive microclimate, both in preschool and in the child's family.

third group(24–33 points) are children who are interested in cooperating with adults. They immediately accept tasks, understand the conditions of these tasks and strive to fulfill them. However, on their own in many cases they cannot find an adequate way to perform and often turn to an adult for help. After being shown how to complete the task, many of them are able to complete the task on their own, showing great interest in the result of their activities.

In children of this group, it is necessary to clarify the primary violations. Regardless of the primary violation, all children need to form an active interest in the properties and qualities of objects, develop perceptual actions (trials, trying on). At the same time, it is necessary to develop productive activities: modeling, appliqué, drawing, designing.

An important direction in corrective work with these children is the formation of a holistic view of the surrounding reality, of a person and of interactions between people, familiarization with various types of activities.

In all cases, corrective work is carried out with these children on the development of speech. Depending on the primary violation, a specific system is created for including the child's speech in the process of sensory cognition of the surrounding reality.

fourth group(34–40 points) are children who accept all tasks with interest, perform them independently, acting at the level of practical orientation, and in some cases at the level of visual orientation. At the same time, they are very interested in the result of their activities. These children usually reach good level mental development.

Thus, the proposed psychological and pedagogical examination makes it possible to identify in children early age mental retardation and helps psychologists and teachers-defectologists to outline ways corrective work with each of the examined children, taking into account their individual structure of the disorder.

Stanford Binet test for children from 3 years old

Among the numerous translations and adaptations of the Binet tests, the most viable was the Stanford Binet test (restandardized in 1972). It is designed to measure IQ from 3 years to adulthood. However, according to Western psychologists, the Stanford-Binet scale is not suitable for testing adults, and primarily those whose intellectual development is within and above the norm.

Based on our own experience, we can say that this scale is most applicable to examining children from 3 to 5 years old, so only subtests for these ages are given here, and the examination of children from 4 years of age and older is best done using Wechsler tests. WPPSI And WISC.

The battery of tests for each age level consists of six tests.

The tests within each age level are approximately the same in terms of difficulty and are arranged without taking into account the complexity of the tasks. For each age level, there is a reserve test of the same degree of difficulty, which is used as necessary instead of any of the tests of this level, for example, when one of the main tests cannot be used because it does not suit this individual or something prevents him from presenting it.

Four tests from each level, according to their validity and representativeness, are selected for the reduced scale, which is used when time does not allow the full scale to be presented. Comparisons IQ, received on the full and reduced scales on different groups of subjects conducted by Western psychologists, found a fairly complete agreement between them, the correlation is about as high as the full scale reliability coefficient. Average value IQ, however, it decreases slightly on the short scale. This discrepancy also manifests itself when comparing the number of subjects who showed higher results in each version of the scale. Over 50% of them receive lower values ​​in the short version compared to the full version IQ and only 30% have a value IQ higher.

Like most intelligence tests, the Stanford-Binet test requires well-trained experimenters, since the presentation and processing of many tests is quite complex. Therefore, a clear test is impossible without sufficient familiarity and experience with the scale. Indecision and ineptitude can have a detrimental effect on mutual understanding with the child. Minor changes in verbal formulations can change the difficulty of tasks. The test also complicates the need to process it immediately after presentation, since the subsequent test depends on how the child completed the tasks of the previous levels.

Many clinicians refer to the Stanford-Binet test not only as a standardized test, but also as a diagnostic interview. The Stanford-Binet test allows you to observe the methods of intellectual work of the subject, his approach to the problem, and other qualitative aspects of the performance of tasks. The experimenter can also judge some personality traits such as activity level, self-confidence, perseverance, ability to focus. Of course, any qualitative observations during the Stanford-Binet test need to be recorded as observations, but not interpreted in the same way as objective test scores. The value of qualitative observations depends on the skill, experience and psychological intuition of the psychologist.

In the Stanford-Binet test, no subject is tested for completing all tasks. The individual is presented with only those tasks that correspond to his intellectual level. It usually takes 30-40 minutes to test young children.

If the examined child copes with all the proposed tasks for children of three years of age, then this level of development is called the basic age.

Testing continues in ascending order (for four years, five years) until, at some level, the subject begins to fail in all tests. This level is called the ceiling age. Upon reaching this level, testing ends.

Jobs are processed on an all-or-nothing basis. The instructions for each test set the minimum execution level from which the test is considered to be completed. Certain tests are given at different age levels, but the criteria for their performance for each level are different. Such a test is presented only once, and its performance is determined by the age level to which the child is assigned. Tasks solved or not solved by the subjects give a certain spread to neighboring age levels. It is not the case that subjects pass all tests of their own or lower mental age and fail all tests above their level. In addition, successfully solved tests are distributed over several levels from the basic to the ceiling age of the subject. The mental age of an individual on the Stanford-Binet scales is determined by taking the base age and adding two additional months to it for each correctly solved test that is above this level.

For example, a child of 3 years and 2 months is examined (38 months is a calendar age). The child coped with all tasks for three years; so his base age is 36 months. And then he coped with two tasks for the age of four. Therefore, four more months are added to it (two months for each task). Since he did not cope with any task for children of five years old, his mental age is 40 months. IQ is calculated by the formula:

i.e. (40:34) × 100 = 110.

For age 3 years (6 tests, one every 2 months)

1. Specify: nose, eyes, mouth, hair (normal - 3 answers out of 4).

2. Name: key, cup, penknife, watch, pencil (3 out of 5).

Additional test. Repeat 3 rows of numbers (1 of 3): 6‑4‑1; 3‑5‑2; 8‑3‑7.

Additional tests are offered only as an exception in cases where for some reason one or another main test cannot be used. Replacing an incorrectly solved main test with an additional one is not allowed.

For age 4 (6 tests, one every 2 months)

1. Comparison of lines. There are 3 options (3 out of 3): Which line is longer and which is shorter?

___________________________________________________________

Additional test. Repeat the phrase in 12-13 syllables (1 of 3 without mistakes or 2 times with one mistake in each phrase):

a) His name is Maxim. He goes to school";

b) "Sasha heard the whistle and saw the train";

c) "There were a lot of mushrooms and berries in the forest in summer."

For age 5 years (6 tests, one every 2 months)

6. "Remember and complete the three orders" (no mistakes): Put the key on the table.

Close the door ______________. Give a box

Additional test. State your age.

At the beginning of the 20th century, in the system of special schools for children with mental retardation and mental retardation, a diagnostic system was needed to separate normal children.

Simon and Binet - did a series of experiments on the study of thinking, memory, perception in children from 3 years old.

In 1905 he created a system intelligence tests, then the tasks improved, and in 1908 the second edition of the tests came out Binet-Simon, in 1911 year the last edition was published.

The most significant changes took place in 1908. The range of subjects by age was expanded (from 3 to 13 years old), the number of tasks was increased, the concept "mental age". Intellectual development was assessed with its help.

These tests are individual intelligence tests(only with one child).

Each age group has its own tasks.

Of all the tasks developed, the test system included those that were completed by 80-90% of children of this age.

Children under 6 years old - 4 tasks, older - 6 tasks each.

3 years - show your nose, ear, perform a simple task (give the key), the ability to repeat the word.

6 years - distinction right, left; task of several links, repeat the phrase.

8 years - repeat all the months of the year, retelling a simple text.

13 years - the ability to operate with abstract concepts (the difference between happiness and pleasure).

Diagnosis by Binet-Simon tests.

The presentation of all tasks corresponds to the chronological age. If he fulfilled his own, then they gave tasks of an older age.

Determine the maximum age base mental age(when all tasks are completed)

mental months were charged for those that were solved for the next age.

If the mental age is below the chronological age, then it was considered that the child was mentally retarded or mentally retarded. Or vice versa, then it was believed that the child was gifted to some extent.

Binet saw the disadvantage that his tasks were not solved by children who developed in an unfavorable environment. They could not know the names of some items.

The attention of a psychologist is necessary: ​​replace an unfamiliar word, use the method of observation.

Generally this technique very effective, has been useful in the department of children who are unable to study in a regular school.

Gained popularity all over the world. Translation and adaptation of this methodology at Stanford University.

Stanford-Binet test (American method)

1. For the first time, they began to use IQ - intelligence quotient.

2. Concept introduced "statistical norm".

Instead of mental age, Americans began to use the concept of IQ, since mental age had a significant drawback (Stern pointed out in 1912): the same difference between the mental age of two people at different age levels had unequal significance. For example, at 3 and 4 years old, at 13 and 14 years old.

Relative indicator: mental age divided by chronological age and multiplied by 100:

IQ = (mental age: chronological age) x 100

1916 - the first edition of Stanford-Binet.

The statistical norm is a criterion used in psychodiagnostic methods to compare individual indicators and evaluate them.

In 1937 - the second edition Stanford Binet.

Age from 2 to 18 years, is a scale of 17 tests. One test each from 2 to 14 years old and 4 more tests for middle adult age (16-18 years old).

The technique is very high quality, it is still used and is considered a model of an intellectual test..

According to the Stanford-Binet test, all new tests are validated.

The Binet-Simon and Stanford-Binet tests are individual.

Then they began to appear group intelligence tests. This is due to the limited use of individual tests.

During the First World War, it was necessary to evaluate the intellectual development of recruits for their distribution among various branches of the military and institutions.

Arthur Otis- developed the first system of group intelligence tests - army. First published in 1917-1919.

Two forms: form Alpha - for those who know English (tasks, words); form Beta - for illiterates and foreigners (graphic images).

Army tests exist even now for the purpose of professional selection, updated.

Group tests- mass testing tools (dramatic reduction of time). We simplified the instructions, the procedure for conducting and processing the results.

Not psychologists were involved in testing, but specially trained people.

They are used in the education system, industry and the army.

Limitation of intellectual testing - it is impossible to predict the success of performing narrow types of activities.

It is impossible to select a narrow focus, it is necessary to evaluate other psychological features as well.

There was a direction diagnostics special abilities . The impetus was the powerful development of professional advice.

Tests of special abilities - musical, artistic.

The theoretical basis was factor analysis- highlighting the general, which was required in narrowly focused activities.

Especially developed psychotechnics- the use of psychology data in industry and economics.

The impetus for its development was the system of labor intensification (Taylor).

We need accurate knowledge about the psychological characteristics of workers.

Munstenberg proposed 2 methods for testing special abilities:

    analytical direction- methods for diagnosing each mental function using separate techniques.

    synthetic modeling- the most important moments professional labor, the most significant was modeled.

Separate tests of special abilities were combined and batteries of special abilities tests were created for a limited number of professional activities.

Batteries are used to select people for relevant professional activities.

An individual profile of the candidate is drawn, which correlates with the normative profile.

Achievement tests (learning success). Special group. Instead of teacher assessments, it is assessed how successfully the program is learned.

Replacement of oral examinations with written ones in 1845.

They are now used to assess student achievement, instead of regular exams.

Stanford Achievement Test(since 1923) - a combined test used in schools to assess the level of learning in various subjects (comprehension of oral speech, written text).

4. Binet-Simon scale. The concept of "mental age". Stanford-Binet scale. The concept of "intellectual quotient" (IQ). Works by V. Stern

The first scale (a series of tests) Binet-Simon appeared in 1905. Binet proceeded from the idea that the development of intelligence occurs independently of learning, as a result of biological maturation.

A. Binet scale in editions (1908 and 1911) was translated into German and English languages, differed in that it expanded the age range of children - up to 13 years old, increased the number of tasks and introduced the concept of mental age.

The tasks in the Binet scales were grouped by age (from 3 to 13 years). Children under 6 years old were offered four tasks each, and children over 6 years old were offered six tasks. Tasks were selected by examining a large group of children (300 people).

The indicator of intelligence in the Binet scales was mental age, which was determined by the success of test items.

The second edition of the Binet scale served as the basis for the verification and standardization work carried out at Stanford University (USA) by a team of employees led by L. M. Termena. This option was proposed in 1916, had many major changes compared to the main one and was called the Stanford-Binet scale. There were two main differences from Binet's tests: the introduction of an intelligence quotient (IQ) as an indicator for the test, which is determined by the relationship between mental and chronological age, and the use of a test evaluation criterion, for which the concept of a statistical norm was introduced.

IQ score was offered V. Stern, who considered a significant drawback of the indicator of mental age that the same difference between mental and chronological age for different age levels has a different value. Stern proposed to determine the quotient obtained by dividing mental age by chronological age. This figure, multiplied by 100, he called the coefficient of intelligence. So you can classify normal children according to the degree mental development.

Another innovation of Stanford psychologists was the use of the concept of "statistical norm". The norm became the criterion by which it was possible to compare individual test indicators and thereby evaluate them, give them a psychological interpretation.

The Stanford-Binet scale was designed for children aged 2.5 to 18 years. It consisted of tasks of varying difficulty, grouped according to age criteria.

The Stanford-Binet intelligence scale (the famous IQ test) is widely used in Europe and the USA. It is used to assess the preparation of a child for school, including with a profile bias, and the readiness of an applicant to enter a university. The level of development of intellectual abilities in quantitative terms is most often measured by the Stanford-Binet method.

The Stanford-Binet test is used in the following cases:

  • Evaluation of the abilities of normally developing subjects and with special needs.
  • Diagnosis of autism.
  • Recognition of children gifted with abilities.
  • Diagnostics of professional suitability.
  • Research of the level of creativity.
  • Drawing up an IQ-independent portrait of the child's personality: indicators of activity, concentration, effort, confidence.

Brief historical background

The primary test was developed in 1905 by Alfred Binet and Théodore Simon on the orders of the French Ministry of Education in order to weed out underdeveloped children before entering school. The Binet-Simon test revealed the correspondence of intellectual abilities to the physical development of the child, and the number of tasks solved determined his mental age.

In 1916, the test was modified by Lewis Terman from Stanford University (USA). That is why the test became known as the "Stanford-Binet" and is widely used to this day. At the center of the methodology is the IQ coefficient (Intelligence quotient) - a quantitative assessment of intelligence in a numerical indicator. In the fifth version of the test, created in 2003, the scoring method and their interpretation have been changed, and all processes have been fully automated. Can be used for children from 2 years old.

Structure and application of the test

The 2003 edition of the Stanford-Binet test includes five parts:

  1. Definition of mobile (free) intelligence dependent on biological factors.
  2. Verbal research (knowledge test).
  3. Computing tasks (quantitative intelligence).
  4. Visual perception and spatial thinking.
  5. The study of working short-term memory.

These 5 factors of intellectual ability are taken from the Cattell-Horn-Carroll theory.

Time limits - 15-75 minutes (depending on the age and intellectual abilities of the subject).

Interpretation of the results: IQ coefficient 70-79 - borderline, 80-89 - below average, 90-109 - average, 110-119 - above average, above 130 - an indicator of a gifted person.

The Stanford-Binet test cannot be used in diagnosis. psychological disorders and predicting the development of intellectual abilities, since it does not reveal the nature of the data, but only states their presence.

lat. scala - stairs] - an intelligence test designed to measure the level of mental development. The first option S.-B. y. R. sh. was developed by L. M. Theremin in 1916 and was a modification of the Binet-Simon scale of mental development. In the course of development, the basic methodology was introduced a large number of changes. Compared to the Binet scale, more than a third of new tasks were added, a number of old ones were either redone, or discarded or redirected to others. age groups. In fact, the first edition of S.-B. y. R. sh. was a new test. In the future, the test was repeatedly radically improved. S.-B. y. R. sh. includes tasks aimed at exploring a wide range of abilities - from simple manipulation to abstract reasoning. At early age levels, tests require mainly hand-eye coordination, perceptual differences, the ability to understand instructions (in tasks such as folding cubes, stringing beads, matching geometric shapes), as well as the ability to recognize objects presented in the form of toy models or images on cards. At the highest age levels, tests that use the verbal content of tasks are most represented. Among them are a vocabulary test (explaining the meaning of words), analogies, completion of sentences, definition of abstract concepts, interpretation of proverbs. Some tests are aimed at characterizing the degree of fluency and fluency of speech (quick naming of unrelated words, selection of rhymes, construction of sentences with given words). Among the tasks of the battery, tests of general awareness, knowledge of norms are widely represented. public life, rules of conduct (answers to questions, interpretation of situations, detection of inconsistencies in plot pictures or stories). The scale includes a number of tests of memory, spatial orientation (visual reproduction of figures, labyrinths, folding and cutting paper objects, etc.). At higher age levels, the degree of assimilation of certain skills acquired at school (the ability to read, knowledge of arithmetic) is analyzed. When examining with the help of a number of tests, the technique allows for the possibility of obtaining broad qualitative information about the methods of work of the subject, how he solves problems. Great opportunities are also provided for monitoring personal qualities: the level of activity and motivation, confidence, perseverance, concentration, etc. The complex procedure for conducting the survey and interpreting the results, the need for strict adherence to standards require high qualification and preliminary training of the experimenter. According to the application of S.-B. y. R. sh. vast experience has been accumulated, including factual data and their interpretation. In terms of the breadth of use, this technique occupies one of the leading places among intelligence tests in foreign psychodiagnostics. The duration of use and the breadth of distribution made the frame of reference for S.-B. y. R. sh. standard for other psychometric tests. The distribution of the results of IQ-indicators of the Stanford-Binet scales is the basis for the classification of degrees mental retardation widely used in foreign psychodiagnostics. L.F.
