Kindergarten Screens as Tools for the Early Identification of Children at Risk for Remediation or Grade Retention.
Wenner, George
Psychology in the Schools, v32 n4 p249-54 Oct 1995
Compares the capability of three kindergarten screening instruments to correctly predict which children (n=95) would be recommended for referral to remedial programs or for retention: a Piagetian-based instrument, a general screening test, and a language-specific screen. Although the Piagetian-based test had poor predictive qualities, both the published tests were found to be predictive of teachers' recommendations. (JPS)
