BEQI: Evidence for Subscales
Using a dataset of more than 800 observations of early childhood settings conducted by trained observers, we assessed the evidence for the modules we use to summarize BEQI results (play-based learning, learning through conversation, and promoting strong relationships). Our data included observations in early childhood settings for infants, toddlers, and preschool-aged children from 16 different countries representing African, Asian, South America and North American continents. For these analyses, we were interested in determining whether proposed underlying constructs of play-based learning, learning through conversations, and promoting strong relationships were supported by the data.
