Abstract
The validity of the Lollipop Test: A Diagnostic Screening Test of School Readiness was examined by using the Metropolitan Readiness Test (MRT), Level I, Form Q, as the criterion. The sample of 293 kindergarten pupils was administered the MRT by their teachers in classroom groups; the Lollipop Test was individually administered by qualified examiners. The statistical significance of all correlations (p < .001) demonstrated appreciable concurrent validity across the test batteries. Further, a canonical correlation indicated a high degree of multivariate relationship between the tests. Implications of these results were discussed with respect to school readiness screening and the use of the Lollipop Test.
