Abstract

This study aimed to develop and validate the Learning Disabilities Screening Scale (LDSS) for Chinese elementary students. There were 126 teachers from 63 classes in elementary schools participated in this study to assess 2473 students. Besides, 379 students who were suspected of learning disabilities also participated in this study. Results indicated that the six-factor LDSS had adequate construct validity and criterion-related validity. In addition, the results of the receiver operating characteristic analysis further confirmed its validity in diagnosing students with learning disabilities. This research herein may contribute to an accurate screening of Chinese students with learning disabilities and guiding the formulation of target intervention as well.
