The purposes of this study were to develop and validate Korean MHBT for identification of giftedness. MHBT in this study consists of KFT-HB and MHBT-5. MHBT-S was composed of 1) space presentation and thinking ability, space perception,. physics/technic tasks 2) affective domain; creativity, achievement motivation, desire of knowledge, social competence questionnaire 3) performance attitude questionnaire 4) interest questionnaire. The subject were 489 middle school students (1 or 2grade) in the education centers for gifted youth and general classes. Except a few subscales, internal consistent reliability was considered good. Korean MHBT discriminated well gifted students from general students in KFT-HB and some subtests of MHBT-5. As results, Korean MHBT in this study was expected to be a reliable and valid instrument for identification of korean gifted students.

Before evaluating convergent, discriminant, and known-groups validity, it is suggested to design an instrument that reflects hypothetical relationships or differences with other comparator instruments or groups. For criterion validity, a gold-standard instrument measuring the same construct should be carefully selected.

이 연구는 수학 창의적 문제해결력을 바탕으로 수학 영재를 판별하기 위해서 수학 창의적 문제해결력 검사를 개발하고, 유창성만으로 수학 창의성을 평가한 이 검사 방법의 신뢰도와 타당도를 검증하는데 있다. 10개의 개방적인 수학 문제를 개발한 바, 수학적으로는 직관적 통찰력, 정보 조직력, 추론능력, 일반화 및 적용력, 반성적 사고력을 요구하는 문제들이다. 이 10문항을 영재교육기관에 입학하고자 지원한 초등학교 5학년 2,2029명에게 실시했다. 교사들은 각 문제에 대해 타당한 답을 제시한 빈도로 유창성을 측정했다. 학생들의 반응은 Rasch의 1모수 문항반응모형을 기반으로 한 BIGSTEPTS 로 분석했다. 문항반응 분석결과, 이 검사는 창의성을 유창성만으로 측정할 때도 영재판별 검사로서 신뢰도, 타당도, 난이도, 변별도가 모두 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 덜 정의되고, 덜 구조화되고, 신선한 문제가 영재교육 프로그램에 지원한 학생들의 수학 창의성을 측정하는데 좋은 문제임을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 이 검사는 남학생이 여학생보다 수학 창의적 문제해결력이 우수하며, 영재교육원에 지원한 학생들이 수학영재학급에 지원한 학생들보다 더 우수함을 확인해 주었다.

The OSPG(Observation Scale for Parents of the Gifted in Korean Traditional and Western Music) is one of the tools for screening of the Gifted in Korean traditional and Western music. So the validity and reliability of the OSPG has an influence on securing validity of the whole identification process. The purpose of this study is to examine the validity and reliability of the OSPG-2 that input screening processing, and to suggest systematization of identification processing for the Gifted in Korean traditional and Western Music. For the achievement of this purpose, this study administered the OSPG-2 to 261 gifted students aged between 13 and 16 in the middle or high school for the arts. To validate the OSPG-2, I analyzed items of the OSPG-2, and conducted the exploratory and confirmative factor analysis. I also examined the internal consistency. As a result of the exploratory factor analysis, I collected 40 items of the OSPG-2 finally. Furthermore, I could identify psychological construct of the Gifted in Korean traditional and Western Music. The consequence of confirmative factor analysis, the model provided good fit to observed data. As a result of reliability analysis, the internal consistency of the internal characteristic verified Cronbach's ${\alpha}$=.939, and the internal consistency of the external environmental characteristic verified Cronbach's ${\alpha}$=.887. This result of validity study reflects the fact that the OSPG-2 is a valid scale and is able to input to gifted educational field instantly.

Objectives : The purpose of this study was to examine the reliability and validity of the Korean version of Asperger Syndrome Diagnostic Scale as a tool to diagnose Asperger disorder. Methods : Subjects consisted of 15 Asperger disorder, 20 PDD & PDD NOS, 20 Communication disorder children who visited the department of child psychiatric outpatient clinic. The age range of the children was between 5 years 1 month and 15 years 6 month. The K-ASDS, the Korean version of Asperger disorder inventory (K-ADI), and K-CARS were administered to mothers of all children by clinical psychologists. Results The internal consistency of the ASDS was high (Chronbach's $\alpha=0.88$) and the range internal consistencies of each subscales of K-ASDS were from .83 to 66. Correlation coefficients between K-ASDS and KADI was significant. Discriminant analysis showed that the Korean version of ASDS significantly discriminate Asperger disorder from PDD and Communication disorder, and the percentage of correct classification were $71\%$. Conclusion : The results of this study proved that the Korean version of ASDS was a reliable and valid measure for Asperger disorder.

The purpose of this study was to examine the validity of the Manual Ability Classification System (MACS) by analysing of relation between MACS and Jebsen-Talyor Hand Function Test. The concurrent validity was examined by calculation of correlation between MACS and Jabsen-Talyor Hand Function test and the discriminant validity was examined by measurement of hand function difference according to MACS level. For this, eighty-one children with spastic cerebral palsy were employed in this study. The children were evaluated by using the MACS and Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test for their hand function. There were a significant correlation between the MACS and Hand function (r = .870, p < .05). The good correlation between the MACS and subtest of Jabsen-Talyor Hand function (p < .05). The hand function according to the MACS level were different significantly (p < .05). The MACS is valid classification system for assessment of hand function of children with cerebral palsy. The MACS in practice will provide usefulness for assessment of hand function in children with spastic cerebral palsy.

This study examined the construct validity of a Korean translated version of the Gifted Rating Scales-School Form (GRS-S). Data were collected from five elementary schools in a metropolitan area and a midsize town in South Korea. Confirmatory factor analysis results indicated that the original factor structure (6-factor solution) fit the data collected from the teachers. However, the 6-factor solution did not fit the data collected from the parents. Thus, exploratory factor analysis was conducted for the parent data. The results showed that seven factors were extracted, and the factors explained 71.96% of the total variance. Unlike the original factor structure, some items of the academic ability scale were grouped with intellectual ability scale, and a creativity scale item and another academic ability scale item were an independent factor. The study outcomes provide preliminary support for a translated version of the GRS-S with elementary students in Korea. More detailed interpretations and implications of the results are discussed in the study.

This study proposed new approach for the information gifted discrimination test using EPL. We tried to distinguish high level thinking in the information gifted through test of this study. We categorized testing tool according to context type: simple attribute problem, complex same attribute problem, complex focus attribute problem, mathematic-verbal ability required problem. And testing tool divided into modifying scripts, guess scripts's result, using scratch program. In the effectiveness test of proposed tool, we confirmed content validity and credibility.

Objective : The objective of this study was to determine a discriminat validity of the Sensory Processing Scale-Children (SPS-C) for children with and without Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD). Method : The SPS-C was completed by parents of 151 Korean children including 68 typically developing children (control group), 83 children with SPD (known group) in the age range 3-5 years, in South Korea. ANCOVA with sex as covariable was used to identified the difference between the children with typically development and SPD. Results : Sensory processing differences in sensory domains and sensory factors were detected and the gender differences were not effective between typically developing children and children with SPD. Significant differences were found in all sensory domain score and total score except proprioceptive processing in sensory domain. In sensory factors, significant differences were found in overrsensitivity, underresponsivity, and discrimination, but sensory seeking was not significant. SPS-C was a valid assessment tool to identify or screen of SPD in Korea. Conclusion : The psychometric characteristics for the standardization study of SPS-C were presented, and the discriminant validity to screen the children with sensory processing problems was presented as a verified evaluation tool. SPS-C will be helpful in screening, analyzing and interpreting characteristics of sensory processing, and establishing an intervention plan.
