Regular Practice

In the previous study (Cígler & Rudá, 2021), we were not able to confirm satisfactory internal consistency and factor validity of the SPARO questionnaire. However, further psychometric properties are also necessary to consider the questionnaire's va­lidity and usefulness in practice. In this follow up study, we examined its criterion validity to MMPI-2, which is used globally and thus has broader empirical support. Despite that, we did not find any support for neither convergent nor divergent validity of the main components, general factor, and the credibility score (L) of SPARO questionnaire to selected MMPI-2 scales. The only exception was the emotional variability scale (EM). As a minor result, we also examined the internal consistency and factor validity of MMPI-2 scales as no other Czech study concerning the questionnaire exists. Neither reliability nor factor validity was satisfactory. Finally, we argue that using the SPARO questionnaire in regular practice cannot be recommended. Cautious use of the MMPI-2 is possible, regarding international validation studies, however, further Czech research is needed, especially in the predictive validity.

Main Components

Scanning microscopy was used to study the surface of human gallstones and the surface of fractures. The specimens were obtained by operation, washed with water, dried at room temperature and shadowcasted with carbon and aluminum. Most of the specimens belong to patients from a series of X-ray follow-up study, examined during the last twenty years. So it was possible to evaluate approximately the age of these gallstones and to get information on the intensity of growing and solving.Cholesterol, a group of bile pigment substances and different salts of calcium, are the main components of human gallstones. By X-ray diffraction technique, infra-red spectroscopy and by chemical analysis it was demonstrated that all three components can be found in any gallstone. In the presence of water cholesterol crystallizes in pane-like plates of the triclinic crystal system.

Adequate Internal Consistency

In 2009, the SPARO questionnaire was one of the most used assessment methods in the Czech Republic (Urbánek, 2010), especially between psychologists in human resources, prisons, police, or the army. However, empirical evidence of its reliability and validity is missing. Using a significant sample of police officers and applicants to police, we researched the questionnaire's re­liability and factor validity. About half of the scales do not have adequate internal consistency; the majority of them are not unidimensional. Factor validity is questionable, especially in the main components of the questionnaire, which are highly correlated. These correlations were also present in the original standardized samples as our and original correlation matrices do not differ. The factor structure of the two general factors items is not clear and two dimensional. Our results do not support the use of the questionnaire in practice. It is necessary to confirm its’ predictive validity; the criterion validity is evaluated in our follow up study (Cígler & Rudá, 2021).

Experience Questionnaire

Windows environments are growing increasingly popular in both academia and industry. Despite the proliferation of these software programs, however, means of systematically determining an individual's experience in a Windows environment are seemingly non-existent. To address this problem we have developed the Windows Computer Experience Questionnaire (WCEQ). This paper describes the questionnaire and the procedures used to establish reliability and validity for the WCEQ. The WCEQ was administered to 82 participants and then re-administered 1-week later. The questionnaire was easy and quick to administer. It also provided a range of results reflecting the inherent diversity in computer experience of the group studied. Split-half and test-retest results indicated that the WCEQ has high internal consistency and is a reliable tool for measuring a user's knowledge of Windows environments. Furthermore, initial validity studies in a follow-up study provided evidence of the instrument's construct validity.
