Abstract

The purpose of this study was to validate an early childhood screening instrument concurrently with other established psychoeducational tests and predictively with a standardized measure of achievement. A battery of tests including a screener and five other established psychoeducational measures was administered to 64 children during their kindergarten year. An achievement test was administered to 33 of these children during their third grade year. The screening test scores were found to be significantly related to the results of other psychoeducational measures both concurrently and predictively. The instrument permits teachers to gather behavior samples in minutes.
