A Validation Study of the Penn Interactive Peer Play Scale with Urban Hispanic and African American Preschool Children.

Castro, Marcelo; Mendez, Julia L.; Fantuzzo, John

School Psychology Quarterly, v17 n2 p109-27 Sum 2002

Investigates the psychometric properties of a Spanish and English version of the Penn Interactive Peer Play Scale (PIPPS) when employed with Spanish- and English-speaking teachers and students. The independent emergence of comparable Spanish and English PIPPS factor structures provides initial support for use of this measure in research with Hispanic preschool children from low-income backgrounds. (Contains 65 references and 3 tables.) (GCP)
