Abstract | For a representative national sample (n=1,200) of children from 5 to 17 years old, ability constructs were assessed through the Differential Abilities Scale. Adjustment constructs were assessed through teacher ratings with the Adjustment Scales for Children and Adolescents. Partialled canonical redundancy and regression analyses revealed that 18.9% of ability variation could be accounted for by demographics, particularly social class and ethnicity. (JPS) |
