Abstract. Although the development of research competency is an important goal of higher education in social sciences, instruments to measure this outcome often depend on the students’ self-ratings. To provide empirical evidence for the utility of a newly developed instrument for the objective measurement of social-scientific research competency, two validation studies across two independent samples were conducted. Study 1 ( n = 675) provided evidence for unidimensionality, expected differences in test scores between differently advanced groups of students as well as incremental validities over and above self-perceived research self-efficacy. In Study 2 ( n = 82) it was demonstrated that the competency measured indeed is social-scientific and relations to facets of fluid and crystallized intelligence were analyzed. Overall, the results indicate that the test scores reflected a trainable, social-scientific, knowledge-related construct relevant to research performance. These are promising results for the application of the instrument in the evaluation of research education courses in higher education.

The Future

The article deals with the problem of the information and communication technologies (ICT) use for the scientific and research competency formation of the future doctors of philosophy (PhD) in specialty 011 "Educational, pedagogical sciences", specialization "Theory and teaching methods: Germanic / Romance languages". The analysis of approaches to the definition of the scientific research competency content and structure has been carried out. The research oriented general and special competencies set needed to the PhD in methodology of teaching foreign languages and cultures, which are formed mainly in the process of studying the academic disciplines "Methodology and the scientific research technologies in the methods of teaching foreign languages and cultures" and "Information technologies in scientific research practice" has been specified. It has also been determined that there is a certain difficulty in finding the optimal way of transferring knowledge from the field of ICT to the future PhD professionally oriented practical activity, which requires a well-grounded selection of cloud, multimedia, projection, information search, analytical research technologies and computer-based tools as a purpose of their study, and further use by postgraduate students at all stages of the dissertation preparation (design, information search, analytical-modeling, experimental-research, narrative, practical). The examples of the postgraduate students use of the Web-sites, blogs, Wiki, cloud services for data storage, scientific search systems, Smart-technologies, the Internet information resources, educational electronic editions and video services in the process of self-preparation for interactive lectures and practical classes in the discipline "Methodology and the scientific research technologies in the methods of teaching foreign languages and cultures" have been given.

Background The planning, implementation, finalisation and reporting of high-quality research depends on the knowledge, skills and competencies of the many individuals who make carrying out the research possible. Aims This study aims to develop a valid and reliable scale in order to identify the scientific research competencies of nursing professionals at undergraduate and graduate level. Methods This methodological study was carried out on 937 nursing personnel, 422 (45%) of whom were academic members and 515 (55%) were undergraduate students. The Anxiety Scale Towards Research and the Attitude Scale Towards Scientific Research were used for the criterion validity. Results The Scientific Research Competency Scale comprises 57 items in four sub-dimensions named as ‘technical skills’, ‘attitude and behaviours’, ‘estimation capacity’ and ‘foreign language skill’. The Cronbach alpha, Guttmann split-half and Spearman Brown reliability coefficients for the scientific research competency scale were, respectively, 0.98, 0.96 and 0.96. The sensitivity and specificity value, by which the research competency of individuals could be determined with minimum error, was indicated to be at 190 breakpoints of the scientific research competency scale. Conclusions As a result, the scientific research competency scale developed is a valid and reliable tool that can be used to determine the scientific research competencies of nursing professionals.

If we make a set of measurements, such as narrow-band or multicolour photo-electric measurements, which are designed to improve a scheme of classification, and in particular if they are designed to extend the number of dimensions of classification, i.e. the number of classification parameters, then some important problems of analytical procedure arise. First, it is important not to reproduce the errors of the classification scheme which we are trying to improve. Second, when trying to extend the number of dimensions of classification we have little or nothing with which to test the validity of the new parameters.Problems similar to these have occurred in other areas of scientific research (notably psychology and education) and the branch of Statistics called Multivariate Analysis has been developed to deal with them. The techniques of this subject are largely unknown to astronomers, but, if carefully applied, they should at the very least ensure that the astronomer gets the maximum amount of information out of his data and does not waste his time looking for information which is not there. More optimistically, these techniques are potentially capable of indicating the number of classification parameters necessary and giving specific formulas for computing them, as well as pinpointing those particular measurements which are most crucial for determining the classification parameters.
