The purpose of this study was to develop an instrument(Self-Regulation Rating Scale) in order to screen preschoolers at risk for self-regulation. Ability to regulate oneself is a necessary behavior that will enable a child to enjoy his/her participatory right. The items in the scale were developed through literature review and experts in the field. The process was followed by two additional steps. First, this study conducted a factor analysis for the validity of items. 427 preschoolers' mothers were asked to rate the ability in their child's self-regulation. The questionnaire type scale composed of 22 items of five factors: self-monitoring, following rules, impulsivity control, personal emotionality and interpersonal emotionality. Cronbach's alpha of total items were .76.
Second, 25 preschool teachers were asked to rate 123 children among the age of four and six with SCRS, and children's mothers asked to rate the same children using SRS. The correlation between the two measures was .68. The result of this study indicate that the SRS is a valid and reliable scale that measures self-regulation in preschool children.
