Uraipong 2024¶
Uraipong, M., Penglee, N., Thanarachataphoom, T., & Polyai, N. (2024). Development Guidelines for Executive Function (EF) Skills in Early Childhood: Needs Assessment in Nonthaburi Kindergartens. Higher Education Studies, 14(2). https://doi.org/10.5539/hes.v14n2p88
q2 · i? · associational · r1
One-sample t-test comparison of MU.EF-101 T-scores against the criterion for 328 children assessed by teachers. Working memory: t = -14.6, df = 327, M = 50.9 (6.3), mean difference -5.1; inhibition: t = -23.7, M = 46.9 (6.9), mean difference -9.1, both p = .00, described as "significantly lower than the criterion".
"in comparing the executive function development of elementary school children studying in kindergarten schools in Nonthaburi province with the criterion of T<56 for executive function skills in terms of working memory and inhibition, the scores are significantly lower than the criterion"
