Description
The Behavior Screening Checklist (BSC) is a universal screening measure that was developed for use in a large diverse urban school district. The present study includes a comprehensive evaluation of the BSC to include: test–retest reliability estimates, estimates of internal consistency using coefficient omega, examination of the factor structure of the measure using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), and subsequent bias evaluation analyses.
