The Preschool Behavior Questionnaire

Summary In summary, the Preschool Behavior Questionnaire was developed as a screening instrument for use by preschool teachers, providing norms for children, ages 3–6. During the 34-month period since its publication in late 1974, the scale has been used to a considerable extent in the screening of young children. Those who have used the scale evaluate it highly. However, the variations in the application of the scale provide clear indications that additional normative data are needed, as well as additional research in the area of the relationship between behavior rating scales and behavior observation techniques.Requests for copies of the Preschool Behavior Questionnaire should be sent to The Learning Institute of North Carolina, 1006 Lamond Avenue, Durham, North Carolina 27701.
