Peer reviewedTorbeyns, Joke; van den Noortgate, Wim; Ghesquiere, Pol; Verschaffel, Lieven; van de Rijt, Bernadette A. M.; van Luit, Johannes E. H. – Educational Research and Evaluation: An International Journal on Theory and Practice, 2002
Studied the development of early numeracy in 207 5- to 7-year-old Flemish children compared with 299 Dutch peers. Results suggest that the Early Numeracy Test (J. van Luit and others, 1994) is moderately reliable and has construct validity. Flemish children lagged at the first assessment but caught up by the third in the middle of the first year…
