CLEAR ANSWERS TO COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Any questions left?

What does this assessment measure?

It measures how closely a primary school child’s everyday behavior aligns with typical cultural and social expectations for their age group. It covers social interaction, academic competence, self-control, obedience, and self-care with routine adherence.

Who should complete the forms?

A teacher provides ratings based on classroom behavior and school routines. A parent or primary caregiver provides ratings based on behavior at home and in family settings.

How long does it take and how many items are included?

Typical completion time is about 7 minutes. The questionnaire includes 36 items.

How should items be rated when behavior differs across settings?

Rate only what has been directly observed in the relevant setting and time period. If behavior varies, select the option that best reflects the most common pattern.

How are results used?

Results help identify areas where behavior differs from typical age-based expectations and where additional support may be useful. They inform educational planning and targeted interventions when combined with other information.

WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Cultural Congruence Assessment for Primary School Children Test

congruence

Assessment of a child’s fit with age-expected cultural and social norms can inform educational planning and support needs. The Cultural Congruence Assessment for Primary School Children is designed to evaluate how closely a primary school-aged child’s behavior aligns with culturally normative expectations across everyday settings.

The measure consists of 36 items and typically takes about 7 minutes to complete. Items reflect broad domains commonly relevant to school functioning, including social interaction, academic competence, self-control, compliance with rules, and self-care/routine-related behaviors. Ratings may be informed by multiple adult informants (e.g., teacher and parent/caregiver) to capture behavior across contexts.

Developed by John W. Berry, the Cultural Congruence Assessment for Primary School Children can be used as a structured method to summarize observed behavior relative to local expectations for the child’s age group, supporting identification of areas that may warrant further evaluation or targeted intervention.
