Abstract
<p>The article describes the procedure and results of standardization and definition of norms for methods of diagnosing the level of mental development of children of two age groups (5-6 and 6-7 years old) (&ldquo;Standards&rdquo;, &ldquo;Perceptual modeling&rdquo;, &ldquo;Schematization&rdquo;, &ldquo;Systematization&rdquo;, &ldquo;Educational activity&rdquo;). The main indicators of the development of perception, visual-figurative and verbal-logical thinking, as well as the voluntariness of modern senior preschoolers are reflected. Diagnostic materials and evaluation scales in &ldquo;raw&rdquo; and standard glasses are given. The study involved 490 children: 223 5-6-year-old children (113 boys and 110 girls) and 267 6-7-year-old children (142 boys and 125 girls) who attended senior and preparatory kindergarten groups in Moscow, Veliky Novgorod, Podolsk, Smolensk, Khimki and three rural settlements of the Moscow region. As a result, modern average standards of mental development and arbitrariness for children aged 5-6 and 6-7 years were obtained. The techniques can be used to assess children&rsquo;s readiness for school, identify individual differences and promote the child throughout the year, compare groups of preschoolers among themselves, etc.</p>
