Early Identification of Developmentally Disabled and At-Risk Preschool Children.
Kochanek, Thomas T.; And Others
Exceptional Children, v56 n6 p528-38 Apr 1990
A follow-up study of 268 adolescents was conducted to determine predictors of disabilities. Parental traits were more accurate predictors of adolescent status than the child's own behavior from birth to 3 years, whereas child-centered skills assessed at 4 and 7 years of age were better predictors than familial factors.
