Construct validity of the BASC-3 teacher rating scales: Independent hierarchical exploratory factor analyses with the normative sample.

Abstract: The Behavior Assessment System for Children-Third Edition (BASC-3) is the most recent edition and the Teacher Rating Scales (TRS) was reported to be the most frequently used test in school psychology practice. Despite its popularity, there is a lack of independent empirical research regarding psychometric properties. The BASC-3 Manual, while quite detailed in many respects, lacks important details in reporting TRS itemand scale-level factor analyses limiting confidence in construct validity based on internal s… Show more

“…The purpose of exploratory factor analysis is to investigate the underlying structure of responses to multiple items to determine the construct validity of that structure (e.g. Canivez et al, 2021 ). The scree plot for these items suggests a single factor with an eigen value of 6.84, accounting for 57.00 percent of the total variance.…”

“…Alternatively, they may advocate for school-wide tools that are easy to administer. As an example, schools may adopt the Behavior Assessment System for Children-3 rd Edition (BASC-3, Canivez et al, 2021), which is an updated version of the widely used and psychometrically sound BASC. Scores on these measures may indicate how problems are manifesting in the school building and provide direction to make data-driven decisions on how best to support those students.…”
