A Validity Study of Two Preschool Screening Instruments: The LAP-D and DIAL-R.
Barnett, David W.; And Others
Contemporary Educational Psychology, v13 n1 p26-32 Jan 1988
The Developmental Indicators for the Assessment of Learning-Revised (DIAL-R) and the Learning Accomplishment Profile-Diagnostic (LAP-D) were compared using 121 children in a Head Start Program. Results suggest that profile interpretations of the scales may not differentiate skill domains and that these scales may be indicative of general development. (SLD)
