This paper investigates cross-cultural differences in analytic/holistic cognitive styles among participants from eleven countries: Armenia, Australia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Czechia, Germany, Ghana, Philippines, Slovakia, Taiwan, and Türkiye. Using a pre-registered design, 993 university students were assessed with three perceptual tasks based on Navon...
Cognitive styles are commonly studied constructs in cognitive psychology. The theory of field dependence-independence was one of the most important cognitive styles. Yet in the past, its measurement had significant shortcomings in validity and reliability. The theory of analytic and holistic cognitive styles attempted to extend this theory and over...
Importance:
Approximately 7% to 30% of children contend with handwriting issues (HIs) in their school years. However, research studies to define and quantify HIs, as well as practical assessment tools, are lacking.
Objective:
To confirm the validity and reliability of two screening scales for HIs: the Handwriting Legibility Scale (HLS) and the C...
The study of maladaptive traits has a rich history within industrial psychology. Most commonly the object of the interest is the traits of dark triad or tetrad. In this contribution, we present preliminary psychometric characteristics of CAT-PD, a method based on the forced-choice format, that captures broad maladaptive traits. This psychometric st...

This theoretical paper introduces approaches that can be used to support a null hypothesis. We introduce the four most promising techniques of equivalence testing: two one-sided tests (TOST), second-generation p-value (SPGV), Bayes Factor (BF), and region of practical equivalence (ROPE). The following paper clarifies the logic of the null hypothesi...
In view of the globalised nature of today’s world, we aimed to explore whether and to what extent there were differences in levels of perceived hope, positive and negative emotions, as well as harmony in life between two national samples, Czech and South African. Although the Czech Republic (CZ) and South Africa (SA) signifficantly differ in terms...

The study focuses on psy-chometric properties of the Czech version of The Perceived Hope Scale (PHS). Subjects and settings. The scale, along with meas...
Background: In view of the globalised nature of today's world in which many cultural differences are fading away, we find it interesting to explore whether and to what extent there are differences in hope levels between two nationalities that are culturally relatively similar, yet differ in many respects. Although both the Czech Republic and Malta...
The main aim of the chapter is to present the results of a research study exploring the correlates and predictors of perceived hope among Czech and Maltese populations. We examined the levels of perceived hope, optimism, life satisfaction, positive relations, loneliness, generativity, and spirituality, and investigated whether there are any signifi...
