“Providing a logical developmental framework for assessment-based decision making with preschoolers, this book should be the primary text used in teaching early childhood assessment. It is a critical resource for any professional who is or will be involved in the comprehensive assessment of preschoolers.”
—Salvatore P. Massa, PhD, Adjunct Instructor, Department of Psychology, Marist College
“Brassard and Boehm have crafted an excellent reference on state-of-the-art practices in the preschool assessment arena. Their perspective is grounded in evidence-based inquiry, rooted in an ecocultural model, appreciative of the sociopolitical climate in which assessment practices have evolved, and reflective of a strong developmental focus. This unique text will be useful to clinicians-in-training and working practitioners.”
—Richard A. Weinberg, PhD, University of Minnesota
“Drs. Brassard and Boehm have done a masterful job compiling information on child, parent and family, and environmental assessment scales and procedures. This book will doubtless become the most-used resource on preschool assessment by both students and practitioners. I anticipate it will be adopted for many different kinds of testing classes at both the master's and doctoral levels.”
