Kotsopoulos, Donna; Zambrzycka, Joanna; Makosz, Samantha – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2017
The purpose of the present study was to determine whether there are visual-spatial gender differences in two-year-olds, to investigate the environmental and cognitive factors that contribute to two-year-olds' visual-spatial skills, and to explore whether these factors differ for boys and girls. Children (N = 63; M[subscript age] = 28.17 months)…

Lonigan, Christopher J.; Anthony, Jason L.; Phillips, Beth M.; Purpura, David J.; Wilson, Shauna B.; McQueen, Jessica D. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2009
The development of reading-related phonological processing abilities represents an important developmental milestone in the process of learning to read. In this cross-sectional study, confirmatory factor analysis was used to examine the structure of phonological processing abilities in 129 younger preschoolers (M = 40.88 months, SD = 4.65) and 304…

Anderson, Zola; And Others – 1983
The study examined the effect of test modifications on the performance of 10 handicapped preschoolers on the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale (Form L-M). Adaptations of both stimulus and response modes were designed and constructed for subtests at the preschool levels on the Stanford-Binet. Attempts were made to maintain the functional…

Peer reviewedBracken, Bruce A. – Journal for the Education of the Gifted, 1983
The McCarthy Scales of Children's Abilities and the Stanford-Binet were compared as instruments for identifying and assessing intellectually gifted preschool and primary aged children. The McCarthy Scales consistently produced lower scores than the Binet. Low to moderate correlations existed between the two scales. (Author/CL)

Peer reviewedMadison, Lynda Sallach; Adubato, Susan A. – Psychology in the Schools, 1983
Tested the effectiveness of the Stanford Binet Intelligence Test and the Bayley Scales of Infant Development in assessing the development of 30 preschool children. Demonstrated that encountering children ages 18-23 months whose performance is not scorable by standard methods for either test is a relatively frequent occurrence. (JAC)

Markowitz, Judith A.; Franz, Susan K. – 1983
Word concepts have long been recognized as an integral part of intelligence, and word definition tasks are frequently used to measure them. Entire subtests requiring definitions, usually called vocabulary tests, are common; because of their apparent stability and comparability with overall intelligence, these subtests have been given a preeminent…
