Grade Repetition and Psychological Referrals in Relation to Child Behavior Checklist Scores for Students in Elementary School.

Pryor, Colin W.; And Others

Psychology in the Schools, v26 n3 p230-42 Jul 1989

Students (N=738) from grades one-five who exhibited behavior problems were assessed for behavioral disturbance using the Teacher's Report Form of the Child Behavior Checklist. Data were analyzed to assess the form's internal consistency, accuracy in discriminating disturbed and nondisturbed students, and validity in terms of grade repetition and referral for special services support.
