Preschooler´s Ability Rating Scale (PARS): Searching for the most appropriate form of parent rating scale for assessing giftedness
Original language description
Although according to Pfeiffer (2002) rating scales are the second most used type of diagnostic tools intended for identification of giftedness besides intelligence tests, they are often criticized due to the lack of validity. Some studies (eg. Miller, Manhal, & Mee, 1991) suggest that parents are able to assess the ability of their children only to some degree of accuracy. It appears that distortion in the assessment may also be caused by variables related to the evaluator. The aim of the study is to verify, if selecting the appropriate form of rating scale could reduce this distortion. For this purpose Preschooler's Ability Rating Scale (PARS) was developed. This method is designed to identify gifted children aged 4-6 years by their parents and consists of two parts. The first one focuses on the development of the child - it detects in which age period specific skills and particular behavior related to giftedness were first observed. The second part is similar to classic rating scales.
