Although early studies of executive functioning in children supported Miyake et al.'s (2000) three-factor model, more recent findings supported a variety of undifferentiated or two-factor structures. Using a cohort-sequential design, this study examined whether there were age-related differences in the structure of executive functioning among…

Blake; Korth, Byran – Child Development, 2009
The generality of a multilevel factorial model of social competence (SC) for preschool children was tested in a 5-group, multinational sample (N = 1,540) using confirmatory factor analysis. The model fits the observed data well, and tests constraining paths for measured variables to their respective first-order factors across samples also fit…

The Children's Personality Questionnaire was used to classify 10-12-year-old children into high-and-low stable groups. Factor analysis for the two groups revealed separate factor structures. (ST)

Mantzicopoulos, Panayota; French, Brian F.; Maller, Susan J. – Child Development, 2004
Competing models of the factorial structure of the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance (PSPCSA) were tested for fit using multisample confirmatory factor analysis. The best fitting model was tested for invariance (a) across samples of middle-class (n251) and economically disadvantaged (Head Start, n=117) kindergarten…

Peer reviewedRoss, Alan O.; And Others – Child Development, 1965
The Pittsburgh Adjustment Survey Scales were developed to meet the need for the objective evaluation of the social behavior of elementary school-age boys using the observations of classroom teachers. An initial item pool was reduced to 94 items by an extreme-group procedure (202 subjects). A factor analysis (209 subjects) of the inventory resulted…

Peer reviewedSchmitz, Mark F.; Baer, Judith C. – Child Development, 2001
Examined factor structure of the emotional Autonomy Scale (EAS) in 3 samples of adolescents, with each sample consisting of 3 racial/ethnic groups. Found that the EAS exhibited poor construct validity and behaved quite differently for different grade and ethnic groups. Suggested that the most credible solution may be to reexamine the conceptual…
