Annotation

The article covers some approaches to evaluation of non-cognitive skills in their connection with cognitive skills and abilities. The paper also defines a number of concepts necessary for working out evaluation models and their automated versions. The authors prove that cognitive process at a deeper level cannot be observed and evaluated directly. It is revealed at the behavior level which is the simplest layer where this kind of observation becomes possible. Certain variations of behavior patterns can be singled out at this level. The authors define the concept of behavior invariant and provide examples of search for behavior invariant based on a set of variations. The article proves the need to search for expression of an invariant without participation or with the minimum participation of result since this approach provides the most accurate description of non-cognitive skills which can be used further in the search for the behavior patterns corresponding to them.

Key words
