Checklist Identification of Elementary Schoolboys for Clinical Referral or Evaluation of Eligibility for Special Education.

Mattison, Richard E.; And Others

Behavioral Disorders, v18 n3 p218-27 May 1993

The Achenbach and Edelbrock parent and teacher checklists were evaluated with boys, ages 6-11, with either severe emotional disturbance, psychiatric outpatient status, or in the general population. Logistic regression analyses showed the Total Problem scales of both checklists to be the most efficient and economical scales for classification. Probability tables were constructed to distinguish groups. (Author/DB)
