Multi-informant reports of preschool mental health: Validation of parent and educator reports and normative data for the preschool Pediatric Symptom Checklist and PSC-17
This research expands the evidence base for the validity, reliability and acceptability of the parent and educator-report PPSC and PSC-17 measures as utilised with young children. Although further research is required, this research contributes new evidence, including incremental validity and normative data, to increase the clinical utility of both PSC measures.
