“…Despite the lack of residual invariance at the age level, the deductive reasoning test has invariances of configural, metric, and scalar models. Therefore, the deductive reasoning test demonstrates a valid and acceptable measurement invariance across age groups in the study (Goñi et al 2020;Kim et al 2022).…”

“…After establishing full scalar measurement invariances of the deductive reasoning test for country, gender, and age groups, the group mean differences of latent variables were explored ( Chiu et al 2015 ; Goñi et al 2020 ; Kim et al 2022 ). Slovakia served as the reference group in the country-level comparison, while boys were used as the reference in the gender-level analysis.…”

Young children possess the fundamental deductive reasoning skills for solving their upcoming problems in their daily lives. These skills are of great importance for their school readiness and academic development. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the age differences and predictive variables of deductive reasoning skills in young Hungarian children aged 4–8 years old who reside in Hungary and Slovakia. Face-to-face data were collected from 3050 participants. The instrument of deductive reasoning skills assessment was extracted from the school readiness test, DIFER (Diagnostic System for Assessing Development). Utilizing various statistical analyses with R, AMOS, and MPlus8 packages, it was found that there were significant differences in young children’s deductive reasoning skills across countries and age groups. Parents’ education levels had significant positive relationships with children’s deductive reasoning skills development. And the variables of country and age were identified as significant predictors of children’s deductive reasoning skills. And children’s family background variables such as parental education played a significant role in predicting children’s deductive reasoning skills in Hungary. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of educational contexts, parental involvement, cross-cultural exchange, and further research, with the potential to enhance young children’s educational experiences and prospects in Hungary, Slovakia, and beyond.
