Identifying Children With Self-Regulation Problems

“…The final sample consisted of N = 413 children (boys = 201; girls = 212) aged between 3 and 6 years ( M age = 55.93 months, SD = 10.26 months) and 27 female Italian teachers from 12 kindergartens in the cities of Milan and Novara (Northern Italy). For details about the sample characteristics, see the supplementary materials (Scionti et al, 2021a, ESM 1). The teachers completed the QUVA-p.…”

“…An additional subscale, named socio-relational and adaptive difficulties, forms a separate index that provides information about child adaptation in preschool. A detailed description of the scale development and application is available in the supplementary materials (Scionti et al, 2021a, ESM 1).…”

“…Pearson correlational analyses were conducted to detect the convergence between the latent dimensions obtained and the EC tasks, controlling for gender, age, and status effects. In order to investigate the power of QUVA-p to detect EC differences in children with and without SR problems, a case, and control-study group were selected from the full sample (for details, see Scionti et al, 2021a, ESM 2).…”

“…Open Data: I confirm that there is sufficient information for an independent researcher to reproduce all of the reported results, including codebook if relevant (see Scionti et al, 2021b). Open Materials: I confirm that there is sufficient information for an independent researcher to reproduce all of the reported methodologies (see Scionti et al, 2021a). The study was not preregistered.…”

“…Measurement invariance across boys and girls was examined to assess whether the questionnaire measures the same construct (i.e., dysregulation), in the same manner, across the two groups. This point has been analyzed in the supplementary materials (see Scionti et al, 2021a, ESM 2). 3.…”
