Screening Children's Entry Characteristics in Kindergarten.
Mooij, Ton
Early Child Development and Care, v165 p23-40 Dec 2000
A pilot study examined the reliability and predictive validity of a screening instrument for Dutch kindergartners. Findings indicated acceptable reliability and predictive validity. Parents could accurately screen their child's language proficiency level, pre-arithmetic level, and degree of extraversion at school entry. Teachers could predict children's language proficiency, extraversion, and work attitude after one month of kindergarten. (Author/KB)
