Other populations: Cronbach's alpha range | A majority of BASC components have internal consistency above .80 (Flanagan, 1994); the average is .80, and internal consistency rises to .90 in adolescence (Sandoval & Echandia, 1994) |
Other populations: Evidence of validity | The BASC manual reports that scale scores are predictive of clinical subgroups. The BASC demonstrates convergent validity with many other teacher-, parent-, and self-report measures of child behavior (Sandoval & Echandia, 1994).
