The agreement between mothers' and preschool teachers' assessments of toddlers language

The authors present the findings on the agreement between the assessments given by mothers and preschool teachers on toddlers’ language. The findings suggest there are moderate correlations between the assessments with which mothers and preschool teachers assessed different areas of toddlers’ language and also moderately high agreements between the two estimators considering separate words included in the vocabulary scale. The findings indicate the possibilities of including mothers and preschool teachers in the process of evaluation of toddlers’ language.
