Adaptation of the tacit knowledge for military leaders questionnaire

Introduction. This paper addresses the issue of selecting appropriate tests for investigating various aspects of intelligence, particularly in situations where the most widely-used standardized intelligence tests fail to align with the research objectives. The necessity for the development and adaptation of novel intelligence research tests is explored. The aim of this article is to adapt the questionnaire designed by J. Hedlund for assessing practical intelligence in military personnel, titled “Tacit knowledge for military leaders”, and to create a Russian version of the test. Following this, the test will undergo standardization on a Russian-speaking sample.
