CONCURRENT VALIDITY OF MEASURING AND ESTIMATING METHODS OF THE ORIGINALITY
27-38Views:149In this study, we focus on the methodological problems of measurement and estimation of originality. In the first part, we introduce some score systems which are applied by creativity tests, and we highlight the possibilities and the dangerous sides of estimation scales of originality. The second part of this study shows a concurrent validity examination (n=127). Applied tests and variables are originality indexes of the Tóth’s Estimation Scale of Creativity (TKBS) and the Unusual uses and the Circles tests. Results: about r = 0,2 significant (p≤0,05) correlations were among the originality scores – it is not enough from the aspect of concurrent validation.

MANIFESTATION OF AGGRESSION IN THE CREATIVITY TESTS
43-55Views:322Although the research of interaction of aggression and creativity dates back to the beginning of the early 1900, the possibility of creativity tests to use to examine aggression is novel. In the present study (as a pre-study of long-term research which aimed to create and validate an aggression index) we focus on frequency and correlations of aggressive responses which manifest in creativity tests. Methods. We analyze the differences and correlations of a number of aggressive responses which were given to stimuli the Unusual Uses and the Circle test (verbal and nonverbal creativity tests; N = 356 people). According to our results, the numbers of aggressive responses to the different stimuli of creativity tests: a) are significantly different (p<0,001), b) do not correlate with each other widely (max r=0,414), c) depend on sample-variables of gender and age. In the case of creativity tests, we think it is possible to elaborate on a special aggression index, but during this work, we have to consider the results of this study.

BASIC TERMS IN MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS OF IMPACT STUDIES FOR DEVELOPMENTAL PROGRAMS
69-77Views:101Pedagogues, kindergarten pedagogues, special needs teachers (also known as remedial teachers), and psychologists – just a few of those people who can create and use development programs. These programs are expected to be proven in their effects by using mathematical analysis. However, it doesn’t happen in every case – partly due to a shortage of definitions of mathematical statistics, methodology problems, and expensive software. This paper is a theoretical summary of the mathematical-statistical analysis of effectiveness studies of remedial courses designed for those who live with special needs.

STRUCTURES OF DATABASES FOR IMPACT STUDIES OF DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMMES IN A FREE STATISTICAL SOFTWARE: IN THE SOFTWARE ’R’
37-47Views:95In order to carry out effectiveness study of the development programs (e.g. education, children with special needs) based on mathematical-statistical methods, the following factors are important: 1) you need some basic mathematical definitions (Math et all., 2015), 2) a statistical software (e.g.: the ’R’) at a reasonable price, 3) some experience in working with this software. The ’R’ is free downloadable software (that can be applied in mathematical-statistical calculations too) which can be a very useful instrument of research of children who need special treatment. This paper provides a practical solution in connection with the last two factors and introduces language ’R’ and its possibilities.

THE OXIPO GAME COLLECTION FOR DEVELOPING COGNITIVE ABILITIES
63-73Views:1142This study is a presentation of the first phase of a complex research project which aims to present the theoretical background of a new game collection (based on OxIPO model). We have compiled a game collection to improve cognitive abilities in early childhood. Concerning cognitive abilities, Affolter's (1972), Sindelar's (1994) and others' earlier developmental approaches took into account visual, auditive or motoric (inter) modalities of perception, however, we believe we need a more complex model to cover the full capability. Within the framework of the OxIPO model (Mező, 2002, 2016), learning is interpreted as an information processing process. In the OxIPO model (Field, 2002, 2016), Learning = Organization x (Input + Process + Output) allows us to control and systemize not only the input modalities but also the output modalities and also to interpret some cognitive abilities in the process phase. We have created a game-collection based on six input (visual, auditive, kinesthetic, olfactory, gustatory, and tactile) modalities and five cognitive abilities (perception, attention, memory, conceptual thinking, problem-solving thinking) and three output (visual, auditive, motoric) modalities. The outcome of the six input modalities and the five target abilities and the three output modalities there are 90 different games that can be described by the OxIPO model. In the future, we would like to prove with empirical studies that this game collection can be used for testing and developing 90 independent cognitive abilities. On the other hand, we need to prove that these cognitive abilities indeed influence the daily lives of children and their effectiveness.

REVISION OF HUNGARIAN VERSIONS OF THE ALTERNATIVE USES AND CIRCLES CREATIVITY TESTS IN CASES OF ELEMENTARY AND SECONDARY SCHOOLS STUDENTS
41-47Views:912Although time plays a role as a latent or explicit factor in all creative processes, a direct examination of the role of time occurs less frequently in creativity research (Mező K., 2017; Mainemelis, 2002; Runco, 1999). This study focuses on the revision of Hungarian versions of creativity tests because the last standardization of these tests had been for more than 30 years. The applied tests were the Alternative Uses Test (as verbal creativity test), the Circles Test (as a figural test), and the Raven nonverbal intelligence test (as a complementary means of study). The sample of this study was 1363 elementary and secondary school students, whose 35331 responses were recorded and analyzed. According to the results, the differences in scores of the old and new (revised) evaluation tables of all tests and age groups are significant (p ≤ 0,05). From the viewpoint of the revised scores, there is a significant difference with respect to fluency, originality, and flexibility in both tests and all age groups. However, the differences in scores of other indicators (average originality, relative flexibility, and revised average originality) are not significant.
