“…The main aim of this study was to assess if a questionnaire measuring the sense of time administered to teachers and parents at the beginning of the last year of kindergarten—that in Italy lasts 3 years—can predict children's time‐processing skills at the end of 1st grade. Despite the teacher version of this questionnaire was able to predict children's time‐processing skills from the beginning (mean age = 4.78 years) to the end (mean age = 5.36 years) of the last year of kindergarten (Tobia et al, 2019), this association could change after a year of formal schooling, considering that children's new numeracy (e.g., use of counting; Droit‐Volet, 2016) and time‐related (e.g., knowledge of formal timing symbols; Hamamouche & Cordes, 2020) skills could modify the strategies used to respond to the time‐processing tasks, and the improvement of attentional skills, as well as executive resources, could importantly change their time‐processing skills (Droit‐Volet, 2016). Despite these changes in 1st graders, we expect their time‐processing skills to be significantly predicted by the teacher version of the Sense of time questionnaire, but not by the parent version, as happened in the past shorter longitudinal study (Tobia et al, 2019); this would be also in line with the weaknesses usually identified in parent reports (e.g., social desirability, scarce objectivity; De Los Reyes & Kadzin, 2005).…”
