Abstract
The article presents the results of approbation and standardization of the research questionnaire "Cognitive Personality Maps".
Introduction. The purpose of the questionnaire is to identify the type of cognitive map of personality. The questionnaire is based on the provisions on cognitive schemas by W. Neisser, E. Tolman, F. N. Shemyakin. The main types of maps are: a path map as a diagram of the relationship between objects, based on a phased resolution of current situations, and an overview map, which is characterized by a desire to resolve situations taking into account the consequences, a pronounced orientation to the future. The novelty of the study lies in the creation of a questionnaire that allows you to identify the type of cognitive map of a person using mathematical methods, and not just a qualitative analysis.
Methods. To study the type of cognitive personality maps, the author's research questionnaire "Cognitive Personality Maps" is proposed, which consists of 20 statements and involves 3 response options.
Results. 410 respondents took part in testing the questionnaire. At the first stage, the coefficient of linear correlation between the parts of the questionnaire was calculated, and the constancy of the questionnaire was studied. At the second stage, the content and criterion validity of the questionnaire were studied. During the standardization procedure, the calculated values of Cronbach's α-coefficient were in the range of 0.8–0.9, which indicates the development of the questionnaire, the balance of its parts and the possibility of its assessment as a reliable and valid diagnostic tool. In the process of approbation, types of cognitive personality maps were identified: path map, overview map, indefinite type of map.
Discussion. The results obtained were compared with the results of similar studies of the type of cognitive maps using the technique of cognitive mapping. The results have a high degree of agreement.
