Preschool Assessment

Providing a logical developmental framework for assessment-based decision making with preschoolers, this book should be the primary text used in teaching early childhood assessment. It is a critical resource for any professional who is or will be involved in the comprehensive assessment of preschoolers.--Salvatore P. Massa, PhD, Adjunct Instructor, Department of Psychology, Marist College


“Brassard and Boehm have crafted an excellent reference on state-of-the-art practices in the preschool assessment arena. Their perspective is grounded in evidence-based inquiry, rooted in an ecocultural model, appreciative of the sociopolitical climate in which assessment practices have evolved, and reflective of a strong developmental focus. This unique text will be useful to clinicians-in-training and working practitioners.--Richard A. Weinberg, PhD, University of Minnesota

Drs. Brassard and Boehm have done a masterful job compiling information on child, parent and family, and environmental assessment scales and procedures. This book will doubtless become the most-used resource on preschool assessment by both students and practitioners. I anticipate it will be adopted for many different kinds of testing classes at both the master's and doctoral levels.--Carl J. Dunst, PhD, Research Scientist, Orelena Hawks Puckett Institute, Asheville, North Carolina
