摘要:This study aimed to develop a reliable and valid developmental test for toddlers and preschoolers. A trial form of the test with 230 items in 5 domains(cognitive,physical,language,social,and self-help) was constructed and administered to 200 children from 2 to 5-year olds. Item analysis indicated that most items selected in cognitive,physical,and language domain were acceptable in termns of item response rate and item discrimination. However,some items in social and self-help domain did not show clear age trends in item response,but mostly were adequate in item discrimination. Based on item analysis, 112 items were selected for the final form : 24 items each for the cognitive,physical,and language domain;20 items each for the social and self-help domain. Reliability indicated by intemal consistency coefficients(KR-20) were high in all domains. Validity of the test was supported by inter-correlations among 5 domains(.61 to .93),and significant age differences in domain scores..
