| Description | In the presented study, we provide normative Czech data for Trail Making Test (TMT) for students of 9th grade primary school to 4th grade secondary school. It was affirmed that it is not possible to accept TMT results from different cultural context. Results of Czech students were significantly lower when compared to the norms from abroad that are presented in the Czech manual as well as to results of other foreign studies. The factors related to TMT scores of Czech adolescents were identified – type of secondary school and number of student years, and in contrary to other studies, the relation of TMT scores with age was not documented. Psychometric characteristics were also explored. Methodical list for practical use of normative data is provided. Presented data will help clinical psychologists when assessing the neurological functions of adolescents and it might also be useful for psychologists working in education psychology field to identify students with special needs more accurately. |
