The article presents the main directions of the
application of the scree plot method in solving
metrological problems in the social and humanitarian
fields of knowledge (economics, pedagogy, sociology,
including sciencemetry). It is known that statistical
measurements in socio-economic systems are
inextricably linked with the processing of primary
homogeneous monitoring information. It is also known
that empirical averaging (computation of the empirical
mean), as the dominant method of mathematical
statistics, is becoming a thing of the past, due to moral
aging, inconsistency with modern requirements
(primarily to measurement results in socio-economic
systems); In science meteorology, this method was
replaced by the scree plot method (the Hirsch index
and other scientometric indicators are estimated on the
basis of this method). Despite its enormous potential,
the scree plot method, as an alternative to traditional
methods of mathematical statistics, is very poorly used
in the social and humanitarian fields of knowledge.
The authors of this article have shown that this method
can be successfully applied in solving various
metrological tasks, not only in science (sciencemetry is
a branch of science), but also in economics, pedagogy
and sociology. In addition, the authors show
modifications of the scree plot method, using the
example of measuring (measuring) indicators in the
economy, sociology and pedagogy; The relationship
between the scree plot method and the theory of latent
variables (qualimetry) and database technology is
grounded. The authors also substantiate that the scree
plot method - the basis for the formation of monitoring
indicators that adequately reflect the performance of
socio-economic systems. The practical significance of
the results of this study is that they can be used in
socio-economic and psychological-pedagogical
monitoring systems (according to modern views,
monitoring is an information management
mechanism). Methodological basis of the research:
system, sociological, competence, probabilitystatistical
and qualimetric approaches (leading
methodological basis is the probabilistic-statistical
approach). Research methods: modeling; Methods of
graph theory, sets and relations; Systemic-cognitive
analysis; Methods of qualimetry (the theory of latent
variables); Methods of mathematical statistics
The article reflects the relationship between the
parameters of research activities of students and the
characteristics of the educational environment in
higher education. It is known that the research activity
of students is an integral part of the educational
process, therefore, the parameters of research activity
can and should be indicator variables reflecting certain
aspects of the educational environment. According to
modern views, all types of research activities of
students (educational, research, scientific and practical
and research) is the most important mechanism for the
development of their research competence. In addition,
the parameters of research activities of students - the
reflection of the relationship of scientific and
educational activities in higher education, and this -
one of the most important factors of competitiveness
of the educational environment. The authors
substantiate that the parameters reflecting the research
activity of students characterize, first of all, such
aspects of the educational environment as its intensity,
social activity, dominance, coherence, mobility,
stability, reliability and efficiency. This is due to the
fact that the research activity of students is a transdisciplinary
process that depends on the same factors
as the educational process as a whole and is
characterized by the same didactic goals (tasks) as the
educational process as a whole. In identifying the
relationship between the parameters of research
activities of students and the characteristics of the
educational environment, the authors also took into
account the relevance of such a task as ensuring
continuity between levels of continuing education. The
theoretical significance of the results of this study is
that they can be the basis for further scientific
understanding of the problems of the quality of
education and the effectiveness of educational
environments, the practical significance is that they
can be applied in the systems of socio-pedagogical and
psycho-pedagogical monitoring and the effectiveness
of the educational environment, as well as monitoring
the student's personal and professional development).
Methodological bases of research: system,

analysis; methods of qualimetry (theory of

(first of all - the method of rocky scree); methods of
