In 1989 he graduated as a master of social and economic statistics. During his university career, Klaus Kubinger also held several visiting professorships at the universities of Graz , Klagenfurt , Berlin and Potsdam .

In 1992 he became an associate professor.

In 1998 he founded the test and advice center there. As head of the Institute for Psychology from 2001 to 2004, Klaus Kubinger was largely responsible for the restructuring of the institute into an independent faculty. From 2004 to 2011 Klaus Kubinger was head of the Institute for Developmental Psychology and Psychological Diagnostics at the Faculty of Psychology.

Services

At the beginning of Klaus Kubinger's career, there were applications of the Rasch model ( item response theory ) to relevant psychological-diagnostic procedures as well as the use of the linear logistic test model (LLTM, a special case of the Rasch model) for analyzing difficulty components in problem-solving tasks taking learning effects into account.

Then work on the development of a parameter-free discriminant analysis and a double analysis of variance for scaled features shaped his research interest. Later the intelligence test battery AID or AID 2 and AID 3 was developed, which is based on the principle of adaptive testing , as well as the development of several objective personality tests sensu RB Cattell , for which he introduced the designation "experimental psychological behavioral diagnostics". Recently, his work has concentrated on basic research on the psychological-diagnostic process (falsifiability of personality questionnaires), rate effects in multiple-choice tests, equivalence of computerized tests or tests transferred to other cultures, and on the development of self-assessments in the context of student counseling and the further development of the method of item response theory.
