Abstract: The article describes the procedure and results of standardization and definition of norms for methods of diagnosing the level of mental development of children of two age groups (5-6 and 6-7 years old) (“Standards”, “Perceptual modeling”, “Schematization”, “Systematization”, “Educational activity”). The main indicators of the development of perception, visual-figurative and verbal-logical thinking, as well as the voluntariness of modern senior preschoolers are reflected. Diagnostic materials and evaluation scales in “raw” and standard glasses are given. The study involved 490 children: 223 5-6-year-old children (113 boys and 110 girls) and 267 6-7-year-old children (142 boys and 125 girls) who attended senior and preparatory kindergarten groups in Moscow, Veliky Novgorod, Podolsk, Smolensk, Khimki and three rural settlements of the Moscow region. As a result, modern average standards of mental development and arbitrariness for children aged 5-6 and 6-7 years were obtained. The techniques can be used to assess children’s readiness for school, identify individual differences and promote the child throughout the year, compare groups of preschoolers among themselves, etc.
