摘要：The aim of this study is two-fold. First, it presents the adaptation of The Kiel School Admission
Test which is used in Germany, similar to other European countries, to determine the school readiness of
newcomers to primary school in terms of linguistic, physical, social, affective and cognitive skills. Second, it
discusses the admission applications in Germany. Prior to the administration of the test, a language validity
study was carried out by two language experts to ensure that the Turkish version complied with the original
German version. The test is not an achievement test therefore its application reliability was evaluated. Different
decisions of the observers and video recordings were used as a reliability index.
