Behavioral Screening with a Translated Measure: Reliability and Validity Evidence for the Preschool Behavior Screening System – Parent Spanish Form
Journal Title: International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
The present study evaluated whether the Preschool Behavior Screening System (PBSS) translated into Spanish was able to reliably provide information regarding the behaviors and emotions of preschool children. The PBSS Parent Spanish Form (PBSS-PSF) could fill a void as the first multi-stage emotional and behavioral screening system in Spanish. The PBSS-PSF was field tested on 49 Spanish-speaking parents of preschool age children. Reliability coefficients for PBSS-PSF Phase 2 were in the moderate to excellent ranges. Results indicated that PBSS-PSF Phase 1did not yield the expected and predicted correlations with PBSS-PSF Phase 2. Correlations were acceptable between PBSS-PSF Phase 2 and the Behavioral and Emotional Screening System, Spanish Parent form. Collectively, the results are promising for the PBSS-PSF and provide guidance for future refinement of the tool.
