DiaS-K
The DiaS-K project will interview educators in kindergartens and doctors who carry out school entry examinations to find out what instruments for diagnosing self-regulation at kindergarten age need to look like so that they can be used in practice.
COINS
The aim of the COINS project is to identify key features of instruction-sensitive test items that can be taken into account in the development of standardised performance tests.
AHKi
The AHKi project aims to investigate which early temperamental characteristics and cognitive abilities can be used to identify which children are at risk of developing ADHD symptoms.
DYNAMIC Kids
In the DYNAMIC Kids sub-project of the DYNAMIC Center, we are investigating the mental health of children and adolescents using dynamic network analyses. This takes individual processes into account. We aim to provide a better understanding of individual risk and resilience factors, which will serve as a basis for personalized interventions.
SPEAK-Phonology
The research project SPEAK-Phonology is a part of the joint project SPEAK (https://www.validierungsfoerderung.de/validierungsprojekte/speak). This part of the project focuses on developing standard values for a nonword repetiton test that was specifically constructed with multilingual children in mind. Standard values will be calculated for multilingual children between the ages of 4 and 8 and will take their individual biographies of acquisition into account.
TschAu
The project aims to develop a standardized achievement test for students in grades three to six, which can be used to assess specific competences and impairments in written expression.
DYNAMO
The DYNAMO project investigates the association between fulfillment of basic psychological needs and motivation in children and adolescents. To that end, a measurement instrument shall be developed which allows for assessing these two constructs in these age groups.
FrameWord
The aim of the project FrameWord is to investigate whether mechanisms that were described for visual object recognition – namely, neuronal top-down processing – also apply for visual word recognition.
LONDI (former OnDiFoe)
The project LONDI aims at developing a web-based platform to support the identification and treatment of children with major difficulties in learning to read, spell, and/or calculate. The platform will provide evidence-based information, materials and tools for learning disabilities screening as well as for the individual diagnosis and remediation.
InSe
This project investigates the extent to which tests and test items are capable of capturing effects of instruction.
