Construct Validity of the AAMR Adaptive Behavior Scale-School: 2.
Stinnett, Terry A.; Fuqua, Dale R.; Coombs, William T.
School Psychology Review, v28 n1 p31-43 1999
Examines the construct validity of the Adaptive Behavior Scale-School: 2 (ABS-S: 2) through exploratory factor analysis. Results indicate that the ABS-S: 2 is best understood as a two-factor instrument for both children with mental retardation and for those without mental retardation. The test does seem to reflect personal independence and social behavior as the scale's authors intended. (Author/GCP)
