    This study explored developmental assessments for preschool children with delays. Results suggest teachers could potentially screen children using these tools, but the small sample size requires caution.

    Area of Science:

    • Developmental psychology
    • Early childhood education
    • Psychometrics

    Background:

    • Preschool children with developmental delays require accurate and efficient assessment tools.
    • Early identification of developmental delays is crucial for timely intervention.
    • Existing assessment tools vary in scope and administration requirements.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To examine the correlations between different developmental assessment tools in preschool children.
    • To evaluate the potential for using specific assessments as preliminary screening tools by teachers.
    • To provide preliminary data on the psychometric properties of selected tests in a special population.

    Main Methods:

    • A sample of 23 preschool boys and girls with developmental delays participated.

  • Participants were administered the Peabody-A, Riley Design, McCarthy Designs, and the Riley human figure tests.
  • Correlational analyses were conducted on the scores obtained from the different assessments.

    • Main Results:

    • Correlations among the administered assessment scores ranged from .58 to .80.
    • These moderate to high correlations suggest a degree of consistency between the measures.
    • The findings indicate potential overlap in the constructs assessed by these developmental tools.

    Conclusions:

    • Preliminary screening of developmental delays in preschool children may be feasible for qualified teachers using these tools.
    • The observed correlations support the potential utility of these assessments for screening purposes.
    • However, the very small and specialized sample size necessitates further research with larger, more diverse populations.
