Instruction
1. In order that psychological test yielded objective result, its carrying out has to happen in habitual and natural conditions for the child. You should not say that now you will begin to check his knowledge and ability, the child can prick up the ears, be frightened, become isolated. Better than all task to give in its game room, having seat the child at his table and to suggest to draw, play, or together to consider some interesting pictures.
2. It is better to carry out diagnostics in the form of a game or game exercises. If the test is made in such a way that the child needs to answer questions, all the same beat this situation. Suggest to play school or occupation in kindergarten. The child for himself and for other "pupils" can answer questions: dolls, bears, hares who together with him study at this school.
3. With the researcher the child has to have good, trusting relationship. The child can not answer foreign person who carries just out the work and asks questions, and the lack of answers will be apprehended as ignorance. Foreign person has to begin to diagnose not at once, and at first to get acquainted with the child, to talk about something pleasant, it is simple to play.
4. The ordinary conversation can become a basis for holding a diagnostic conversation. It is necessary that answers were continuation of the unfinished offer: "When I will grow up, I will be …", "It is boring for me when …", "The most interesting is …", "It is pleasant to me …" and others.
5. The child is younger, the it is less at the adult of opportunities to give to the kid any tasks. Generally diagnostics will consist in observation of the kid and fixation of necessary data in tables or protocols. For example, watching the pugnacious child in kindergarten within a week, the researcher fixes acts of aggression during every day with the indication of time. Observation can show in what days of the week or in what time of day the child is most of all angry and cannot constrain the feelings.
6. Psychological diagnostics of the preschool child is often connected with the analysis of products of its activity: drawings, hand-made articles, stories. The researcher recognizes the maintenance of children's complexes and unresolved problems by a certain symbolics of the drawing or a hand-made article. For example, at free drawing the child draws the big mountain and the road to top. Draws himself on the middle of this path or at mountain top. Such drawing can be considered and as desire to go hiking and as aspiration of the child to self-improvement. Interpretation will appear if we talk to the child according to contents of this drawing.
