Özet

Screening preschool children for potential school problems may allow early intervention. Children beginning first grade (N = 980) were tested with Denver II. All with normal/questionable results had satisfactory school performance while 26% of those with abnormal Denver II had low school scores. 43%, 27% and 0% of children with abnormal, questionable, and normal Denver II respectively had IQ < 90 on WISC-R (p = 0.05). Preschool Denver II can be recommended for populations at risk. © 2006 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
