| 总结: | The present study investigated the mastery level of basic relational concepts among
children aged 5, 6, and 7 in the southern part of Malaysia. The understanding of basic
relational concepts was measured using Boehm Test of Basic Concept-Revised
(BTBC-R). This instrument was translated and modified according to Malaysian
culture. The modified version of the test was pilot tested using sample of International
Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) kindergarten. The main study involved a total of
160 children from kindergarten, preschool and standard 1 in Kluang Johore, which
were grouped according to their chronological age. Comparison of mean scores across
ages showed that as the age increases, the mastery level of basic relational concepts
also increases. It also found that comparison between standard 1 children attending
remedial class and those who did not was significant. In addition, significant
relationship exists between scores obtained in the midyear examination and the
BTBC. Item difficulty was computed for each item and the reliability estimates were
also calculated. The internal consistency for the test was satisfactory. |
