Komplekso problēmu risināšanas prasmju saistība ar kognitīvajām spējām un vadības funkcijām skolēniem 16-19 gadu vecumā
Promocijas darba mērķis: izpētīt sakarības starp komplekso problēmu risināšanas prasmēm, kognitīvajām spējām un vadības funkcijām vidusskolas skolēniem vecumā no 16 līdz 19 gadiem.
