I need to explore the demographic and psychological predictors of PI in the education and development of children. My participants are primary school children, age 6, 7 and 8. I need a scale to be administered for parents. Who is ready to help me got a more valid scale? I need to adapt it to the Ethiopian context.
See this paper - Walker, J. M. T., Wilkins, A. S., Dallaire, J. R., Sandler, H. M., & Hoover-Dempsey, K. V. (2005). Parental Involvement: Model Revision through Scale Development. The Elementary School Journal, 106(2), 85-104. http://dx.doi.org/10.1086/499193
