Some Measuring Instruments for Research or Clinical Practice
Parent Practices Scale The Parent Practices Scale is an instrument that asks parents about certain things that they do with their children. Included in the scale are practices thought to be beneficial and detrimental to children. A total score is derived that is thought to measure how favorable the parent practices are. This scale has been used as an outcome measure for studies of parent training, particularly with young children. It may also be used as a covariate if the researcher is wanting to control the effect of parent practices when examining other variables. It is also useful for clinicians working with children and families to use as a before/after measure for clinical work. It is available for all to use, without royalty.
