Effects of Place of Testing on the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test Scores of Disadvantaged Head Start and Non-Head Start Children
Seitz, Victoria; And Others
Child Development, 46, 2, 481-486, Jun 75

The overall testing environment was a significant factor influencing the test performance of disadvantaged children who had not attended a Head Start program. Head Start children performed equally well in both situations. (Author/CS)
