Abstract

The article characterizes the means of psychodiagnostics of implicit theories of intelligence of elementary school students: indicators of built-up and set attitudes, where the first involves the belief that knowledge, abilities and competence can be obtained by making efforts, and the second - abilities are given and cannot be improved. The standardization of the technique of the "Questionnaire of Implicit Theories of Abilities" and its validity and reliability are shown.
