Computer Administering of the Psychological Investigations: Set-relational Representation
Computer administering of a psychological investigation is the computer
representation of the entire procedure of psychological assessments - test
construction, test implementation, results evaluation, storage and maintenance
of the developed database, its statistical processing, analysis and
interpretation. A mathematical description of psychological assessment with the
aid of personality tests is discussed in this article. The set theory and the
relational algebra are used in this description. A relational model of data,
needed to design a computer system for automation of certain psychological
assessments is given. Some finite sets and relation on them, which are
necessary for creating a personality psychological test, are described. The
described model could be used to develop real software for computer
administering of any psychological test and there is full automation of the
whole process: test construction, test implementation, result evaluation,
storage of the developed database, statistical implementation, analysis and
interpretation. A software project for computer administering personality
psychological tests is suggested
A Historical Approach to Assertiveness
A very important personal quality is to be able to advocate for yourself - your own positions, to achieve your objectives, to overcome difficulties, to be determined, but without harming the rights of others and to be able to control the aggressive impulses. The concept, which expresses these personal characteristics, is called "assertiveness". Assertiveness is a part of the personal potential. It is a prerequisite for self-actualization. The goal we set in this historical-psychological paper is to explore the genesis, development and stabilization of the term "assertiveness". In this context, we will examine, compare and analyze the positions of the leading authors on this issue
Locus of Control and Protection of Consumer Rights
This paper examines the influence of locus of control on the consumer behavior. Theoretical supposition is proven by analyzing empirical data from a study of 287 students. The methods assessed the capacity for defending personal and consumer rights, as well as the type of locus of control. Language: Bulgaria
