總結: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.
