Abstract
A significant problem for practical psychologists is development of own methods necessary for particular and special cases of character research. This requires technologies for creating psychological diagnostic tools that might help to extend, streamline and show a complete picture of the personality, as well as a reliable system for validating the designed instrumentation. Practical psychology needs set forth a social mandate for the development of a classification technology highlighting psychological characteristics of individuals. Purpose of the research: creation of a new methodology for obtaining and measuring information concerning personality accentuations. Methods: a three-factor integrated dichotomic basic approach is used in modelling personality accentuations types and varieties of temperament. The respondents were represented by 187 students of Vologda State University. The research was carried out using the MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory) test and Holland’s Professional Test Guide. The correlation analysis was used as well in data processing. The validation of the new methodology for measuring personality accentuations was made in terms of constructive validity. The research results extend the scientific concept defining the role and significance of the processes structuring the personality-specific psychological information, based on the use of a dichotomic three-factor basic approach which in turn will contribute to the development of theoretical psychologist’s creative thinking. In addition, the results are aimed at obtaining complete and ordered measurement information on personality accentuations based on the application of the integrated-dichotomic three-factor basic typological approach that is of particular importance for the formation of practical psychologist’s theoretical reasoning. The research results can be used for the purpose of extension of the psychodiagnostic training content.
Highlights
The study of personal characteristics and their subsequent typology was undertaken by both Russian and foreign researchers
Following the theoretical analysis of the problem under consideration [1,2,3,4] and in view of its relevance, a contradiction was revealed between the existing methods of obtaining information on personality accentuations, that provided an incomplete and disordered picture in this aspect, and the need to develop a technology for creation of a personality accentuation measuring technique that would provide a due representation of a complete and ordered typological model of personality accentuations
The research was based on the three-factor integrated-dichotomic basic approach, the baseline factors analysis and the correlation analysis, Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) test representing a common method for the study of normal and pathological personality, as well as Holland’s Professional Test Guide [7, 8]
Summary
The study of personal characteristics and their subsequent typology was undertaken by both Russian and foreign researchers Following the theoretical analysis of the problem under consideration [1,2,3,4] and in view of its relevance, a contradiction was revealed between the existing methods of obtaining information on personality accentuations, that provided an incomplete and disordered picture in this aspect, and the need to develop a technology for creation of a personality accentuation measuring technique that would provide a due representation of a complete and ordered typological model of personality accentuations. It was the desire to find due ways to resolve this contradiction that outlined the problem of the present research
