Competence is a popular research subject of foreign and domestic psychology, pedagogy, and sociology. Social, emotional, and socio-emotional competences are often considered as key ones. Although they usually associate with success in various spheres of human life, no tool for diagnosing socio-emotional competence has been developed yet. This article describes the problem of diagnosing social and emotional competence. It introduces new psychometric and psychodiagnostic tool that can be used to test socio-emotional competence and its structure. The questionnaire was based on the QSECP Item Response Theory (IRT) methodology that evaluates tests and their efficiency. The psychometric analysis made it possible to determine the validity and reliability of the new questionnaire, as well as to establish the main list of questions that reflect the structure of socio-emotional competence. The questionnaire can be used to study mental, pedagogical, and sociological phenomena of socio-emotional competence, as well as the structure of social and emotional reliability, their formation, professional performance, etc. Further research will feature of socio-emotional competence in various activities and personalities.
