Abstract
This report describes the development of the Parent Rating Scale (PRS), a 20-item scale for use by parents in rating the adjustment of young normal children. Based on the responses of 416 parents of urban and suburban 2nd and 3rd grade children, a principal components factor analysis with varimax rotation yielded a 4-factor solution accounting for 48.3% in total variance. Low to moderate relationshps were found between PRS scores and teacher, self, and sociometric ratings fo children. PRS total and factor and total scores discriminated clearly between referred and nonreferred children. Suburban children had higher PRS scores than urban children and girls had higher scores than boys.
