Processing and interpretation of test results. The respondent's answers must be compared with the key.

  • - If the letter indicated in the key matches the letter of the answer chosen by the respondent, 2 points are awarded for this answer.
  • - For an intermediate answer “b”, 1 point is always awarded.
  • - If the letter of the answer and the letter of the key do not match, 0 points are awarded.

Processing for factor B (logical thinking) is somewhat different.

  • - If the letter of the answer matches the letter of the key, 2 points are assigned.
  • - In case of mismatch - 0 points.

Key to the test

The scores obtained in this way are summed up for each factor.

For factors A, B, C, D, K, M, N, L, the maximum number of points is 20.

For factor P - 40 points (add lines V and IX). The number of points from 16 to 20 (for factors A, B, C, D, K, M, N) is a high score for this factor, which means that the corresponding personality quality is clearly expressed (for example, sociability according to factor L).

The number of points from 13 to 15 indicates a certain predominance of the quality corresponding to the high score (for example, sociability over isolation).

The number of points from 5 to 7 indicates the predominance of the quality corresponding to the low score (for example, isolation over sociability).

A score from 8 to 12 means an approximate balance between two opposing personal qualities (for example, moderately open, moderately closed).

If the respondent scored 12 or more points on the L scale, then the survey results must be considered unreliable.

If the respondent scored more than 20 (out of 40) points on the P scale (tendency to antisocial behavior), then this indicates certain personal problems in some area of ​​life: in the family, relationships with friends, at work, in relationships with others). In this case, it is necessary to conduct an additional interview to determine how serious the problems are.

Factor a

  • - high score +A - open, easy-going, sociable.
  • - low score -A - unsociable, withdrawn.

Factor B

  • - high score +B - with developed logical thinking, quick-witted.
  • - low score -B - inattentive or with underdeveloped logical thinking.

Factor C

  • - high score +C - emotionally stable, mature, calm.
  • - low score -C - emotionally unstable, changeable, susceptible to feelings.

Factor D

  • - high score +D - cheerful, carefree, cheerful.
  • - low rating -D - sober, silent, serious.

Factor K

  • - high score +K - sensitive, reaching out to others, with artistic thinking.
  • - low score -K - self-reliant, realistic, rational.

Factor M

  • - high score +M - prefers own decisions, independent, self-oriented.
  • - low score -M - dependent on the group, sociable, follows public opinion.

Factor H

  • - high score +N - self-controlled, able to subject oneself to rules.
  • - low score -N - impulsive, disorganized.

In addition, this questionnaire allows us to identify the tendency

to antisocial behavior (factor P), which can be characterized by disregard for accepted social norms, moral and ethical values, established rules of behavior and customs.

The questionnaire also includes a truthfulness scale (Factor L), which allows one to judge the reliability of the results obtained.

Level assessment of factors (in points):

  • - 16-20 - maximum level;
  • - 13-15 - predominant severity of factors;
  • - 8-12 - average level;
  • - 5-7 - low level.

This technique is intended to obtain a more complete picture of a person and to draw up a probabilistic forecast of the success of his professional activities.

The questionnaire includes 100 statements arranged in a cyclic order to ensure ease of reference using a stencil. For each question there are three alternative answers.

The technique is designed to study individual personal factors in individuals with secondary and higher education.

The scores obtained in this way are summed up for each factor.

For factors A, B, C, D, K, M, N, L, the maximum number of points is 20.

For factor P – 40 points (add lines 5 and 9).

Number of points from 16 to 20(for factors A, B, C, D, K, M, N) is a high score for this factor, which means that the corresponding personality quality is clearly expressed (for example, sociability for factor A).

Number of points 13, 14, 15 speaks of a certain predominance of quality corresponding to a high rating (for example, sociability over isolation).

Number of points 5, 6, 7 indicates the predominance of the quality corresponding to the low rating (for example, isolation over sociability).

Number of points 8-12 means an approximate balance between two opposing personal qualities (for example, moderately open, moderately closed).

If the respondent scored 12 or more points on L scale, then the survey results must be considered unreliable.

If the respondent scored more than 20 (out of 40) points on the P scale ( ), then this indicates certain personal problems in any area of ​​life: in the family, in relationships with friends, at work, in relationships with others). In this case, it is necessary to conduct an additional interview to determine how serious the problems are.

Factor a

  • High score +A – open, easy-going, sociable.
  • Low score -A – uncommunicative, withdrawn.

Factor B

  • High score +B – with developed logical thinking, quick-witted.
  • Low score -B - inattentive or with poorly developed logical thinking.

Factor C

  • High score +C – emotionally stable, mature, calm.
  • Low score -C – emotionally unstable, changeable, susceptible to feelings.

Factor D

  • High score +D – cheerful, carefree, cheerful.
  • Low score -D - sober, silent, serious.

Factor K

  • High score +K – sensitive, reaching out to others, with artistic thinking.

Level assessment of factors (in points):
  • 16-20 – maximum level;
  • 13-15 – predominant severity of factors;

  • POLYSOCIOCULTURAL ENVIRONMENT
  • MULTICULTURAL SOCIETY
  • COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE
  • PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITY
  • SELF-DIAGNOSTICS OF THE LEVEL OF COMMUNICATIVE COMPETENCE

The article substantiates the relevance of communicative training for university students in an open and multicultural society. A variant of diagnostics (self-diagnosis) of the level of communicative competence of students is proposed, which includes not only socio-psychological, but also sociocultural parameters of communication.

  • Formation of communicative tolerance as a quality of a multicultural personality
  • The influence of additional education on the development of a teenager’s personality
  • Problems and prospects of teaching computer science in primary school

The need to develop the communicative competence of university students is due to the fact that among all types of human activity, professional activity occupies a very special place, in which issues of communication, mutual understanding and cooperation are extremely focused and significant. This is due to the general psychological structure of professional activity, where communication, expressing the actual communicative nature of this activity, is a system-forming component.

Today, the role of communication in the professional sphere has increased sharply, and the forms and means of business interaction are regularly improved. At the same time, in the conditions of an open society and national and cultural diversity, deep sociocultural contradictions have emerged, creating additional communication barriers in interpersonal and professional communication. Due to the fact that today any professional activity is carried out in a multi-sociocultural space where different cultures, values, religions, and worldviews intersect, students must be prepared for multicultural interaction and fruitful dialogue with representatives of different cultures.

Taking into account the modern sociocultural context, communicative competence is defined as an integral characteristic of a university graduate, which is a personal complex of knowledge, skills and business interaction skills, based on the value-humanistic attitudes of the individual and ensuring the effectiveness of communicative activities in a multi-sociocultural environment.

Possession of communication competence will allow a university graduate to:

  • quickly and painlessly adapt to production conditions and collective activities;
  • it is easy to establish contact and mutual understanding with colleagues, managers, subordinates, which will contribute to the achievement of personal success and career growth;
  • interact fruitfully with business partners, implementing comfortable psychological communication and a variety of communication strategies aimed at achieving compromise and cooperation;
  • to achieve the heights of self-realization in solving professional problems and the full disclosure of creative potential in conditions of “team” work.
  • in general, become competitive in the modern labor market in a multicultural environment.

Unfortunately, the current level of communicative readiness of university students does not correspond to modern sociocultural conditions, in which a person is not confined to a national cultural area, but is included in a boundless multicultural space. The ascertaining experiment conducted by the author showed that many students rely on national and cultural stereotypes in communication, demonstrate intolerance to other points of view and to criticism addressed to them, are disdainful of “alien” cultural values, and do not know how to build a dialogue with other ethnophores.

All of the above actualizes the pedagogical task of developing communicative competence among students, which should include optimal adaptive models of behavior in a multicultural environment, including the formation of multicultural consciousness, a sense of solidarity, tolerance, intercultural communication skills, and the ability to dialogue (polylogue).

Formation of positive communicative behavior of students is a complex and multifaceted problem that requires an integrated approach in the pedagogical activities of the university. An important link in communicative training is the diagnosis of students’ communicative qualities, which allows for systematic monitoring of the level of competence in communication.

In the context of a modern approach to the problem of developing the communicative competence of adults, where learning is considered as self-development and self-improvement based on one’s own actions, diagnosis should become self-diagnosis. In this regard, the problem of measuring the level of competence in communication cannot be solved by simply informing the subject about its results - it is important to organize the diagnostic process in such a way that its participants receive effective information, on the basis of which they can carry out the necessary correction of communicative behavior. Thus, measuring students’ communicative competence should become a process of self-assessment and self-analysis, and the formation of communication competence should become a process of self-improvement of communicative qualities during the process of studying at a university.

The proposed version of self-diagnosis of students' communicative competence is developed in the form of a personal questionnaire in the form of closed questions, including a five-point rank measurement scale. The validity and reliability of the diagnosis was verified by an expert survey.

The questionnaire consists of four main scales, which together include 50 questions containing relevant indicators of communicative competence. In each scale, the first half of the questions reflect the positive characteristics of communication, the second part - the negative ones: 1-10 - questions carry a cognitive load; 11–20 – questions determine the emotional parameters of communicative competence; 21–40 – questions determine the content of the behavioral component of communicative competence; 41–50 – questions reflect the level of communicative tolerance. Although certain indicators of tolerance are also present in the first three scales, it is advisable to separate the characteristics of communicative tolerance into a separate block of questions.

The individual score (generalized) is calculated according to the following scheme:

The more points, the higher the level of communicative competence.

up to 100 points – low level

Characteristics of the levels of communicative competence of students

High level characterized by the fact that students have formed positive value attitudes in communicating with others, the desire for equal dialogue communication, goodwill, and a readiness for intercultural and interethnic contacts.

Students in this group master collaboration technology that implements the principles of productive communication, namely, they master verbal and nonverbal means of communication; are able to model various forms of communication (dispute, discussion, controversy, etc.); know how to find a common language with different people, are able to overcome their ethno- and cultural-centric prejudices, as well as adjust their own behavior in order to achieve mutual understanding.

A high level of communicative competence can be defined as the achievement of mastery in interpersonal communication, since mastery of it indicates the student’s ability to navigate in various social situations, correctly determine the personal characteristics and emotional states of other people, choose and implement adequate ways of communicating with them.

Medium-high level characterized by the fact that students are sociable, friendly, strive for dialogue and partnerships, to establish contact and mutual understanding with others, and are able to adequately evaluate their interlocutor.

Students have a humanistic orientation in interethnic and ethnocultural communication, and are ready to work in a “team”; have a fairly high level of empathy and tolerance in communication.

However, students with a medium-high level of communicative competence are characterized by the following problems: inability to use non-verbal means of communication, lack of mastery of the processes of self-regulation and emotional control; difficulties in logical argumentation, partial mastery of speech activity and verbal means of communication.

On average level of communicative competence students, on the one hand, demonstrate high communicative activity, implement a value-humanistic orientation in communication, strive to establish relationships of cooperation and mutual understanding with others; on the other hand, for this group of students, the obstacles to effective communication are:

  • inability to adjust your behavior taking into account the reactions of your interlocutors;
  • lack of public speaking skills, inability to conduct discussions, discussions, polemics;
  • the presence of ethnocultural barriers in communication;
  • the desire to talk more than listen, to offer your ideas rather than discuss others;
  • inability to clearly and logically express one’s point of view;
  • categoricalness in judgments;
  • inability to admit one's point of view is wrong.

The main problems in this case are related to communication techniques, that is, with a set of skills and abilities of productive communicative activities, however, the fairly high communicative potential of representatives of this group allows us to hope for good results in the process of targeted communicative training of these students, as well as in the process of their independent work on oneself in order to improve communication skills.

Average level of communicative competence with a tendency to low reflects the students’ desire for favorable and effective communication, for mutual understanding with business partners, but shows a lack of ability and ability to implement this. This group of students is characterized by a whole range of communication problems:

  • subject-oriented – object communication;
  • inability to adapt one’s behavior to the requirements of the communication situation and the characteristics of the communication partner;
  • constraint when communicating with strangers;
  • stereotyping the perception of others;
  • inadequacy of perception of the emotional states of others;
  • low level of socio-psychological insight;
  • problems in the use of verbal and non-verbal means of communication;
  • intolerance of other points of view;
  • “fear” of public speaking, uncertainty, constraint during joint discussions;
  • inability to choose the most appropriate way of behavior in relation to another person, the way to treat him;
  • low level of tolerance.

Many students with a medium-low level of communicative competence are socially active and do not avoid joint activities with others, however, they are not able to organize effective communicative activities based on partnerships, or show “flexibility” in communication depending on the individual characteristics of others. Some of them strive to dominate, while others, on the contrary, show conformism in the process of business interaction. What unites students in this group is their low general cultural level, which clearly complicates the self-development of their communicative abilities within the framework of their personal communicative experience.

For low level of communicative competence They are characterized by a hostile, arrogant, suspicious attitude towards other people, the desire to impose their point of view, and blindly prove that they are right. There is no desire for mutual understanding with others. Students at this level are characterized by: unconscious choice of behavior patterns and inability to provide feedback.

Empathic tendencies of the individual are not developed. Contacts with people with other ethnocultural and socio-demographic characteristics are difficult. Painful attitude towards criticism.

A low level of communicative competence is characterized by cognitive simplicity, which causes distortions in the formation of ideas about the personality of another, as well as pronounced intolerance: high categoricalness in assessing other people, irritation with the behavior of others if it does not correspond to one’s own standards. Students in this group are characterized by the desire to change others and adapt their partner to themselves, the inability to adapt to various communication situations, and poor adaptation to the characteristics, attitudes and claims of others.

These future specialists are not ready for joint activities, for working in a “team”, because they are not able to harmoniously “join” the team, overcome ethnocultural barriers in communication, do not know how to manage their emotional state, and are characterized by a lack of sympathy and assistance.

Students with a low and medium-low level of communicative competence are not aware of their communicative problems, they have no formed or weakly expressed motivation to develop their communicative abilities, which is a serious obstacle to the positive dynamics of the development of communicative competence in these groups.

Thus, communicative competence is a unique qualitative characteristic of the educational result of a university, since it is an effective tool for the socialization of graduates and their adaptation in a modern multicultural society. The proposed method of self-diagnosis of the level of development of communicative competence allows us to focus the attention of students themselves on the problems they have in communication, thereby forming their internal motivation to develop their communicative abilities and correct their behavior in interpersonal interaction.
