The Usefulness of the Denver Developmental Screening Test to Predict Kindergarten Problems in a General Community Population.
Cadman, David; And Others
American Journal of Public Health, v74 n10 p1093-97 Oct 1984
The Denver Developmental Screening Test (DDST) was administered to 2569 children prior to starting kindergarten. At the end of the school year, teachers rated each child. Results suggest that because of its low sensitivity and modest predictive value, the DDST is relatively inefficient for a school entry screening program in a general population. (GC)
