Psychometric properties of the Croatian version of Pavlov’s Temperament Survey for Preschool Children
Croatian version of Pavlov’s Temperament survey for children was created and validated in this study. N = 245 pre-school teachers (all female) provided estimates on this scale for a total of N = 4256 children (2121 girls and 2135 boys) with mean age M = 4.59 (SD = 1.289). As it was expected, factor analysis on principal components with Varimax rotation revealed that three-factor solution is the most interpretable. Overall, three components explained 36.84% of the total variance. Reliability levels Cronbach alpha for Strength of excitation, Strength of inhibition and Mobility are very satisfying. Descriptive for subscales, their intercorrelations and gender differences have mostly confirmed earlier findings on adults. Results indicate the scale can be considered a useful and reliable tool for measuring Pavlovian temperament characteristics of children, however, future verifications on different samples of raters should be conducted.
