“…Several researchers reported additional data regarding the concurrent validity of the BDI with other well-known early childhood measures for study samples containing children with disabilities (e.g., Boyd, Welge, Sexton, & Miller, 1989;McLean, McCormick, &c Baird, 1991;McLean, McCormick, Bruder, &: Burdg, 1987;Sexton, Thompson, Perez, & Rheams, 1990). Correlations between subdomains on the BDI and these other measures are moderate to high and positive, indicating that scores on the BDI have adequate criterion validity for selected nonnormative samples.…”
