Summary:A study examined the psychometric properties of the Elementary School Success Profile (ESSP) for Children, the computerized child self-report component of the ESSP, a new ecological assessment instrument. Findings suggest that the ESSP for Children contains 12 factors in 5 domains with psychometric qualities that range from adequate to excellent. Results indicated that, when data from the ESSP for Children is triangulated with data from the ESSP for Parents and the ESSP for Teachers, it yields information that school staff can apply in intervention planning.
