Resumo: Early literacy development is an indicator of a child’s overall cognitive-linguistic development and affects their academic, social, emotional and behavioural skills. Research suggests that early detection in preschool years can have an important role in the prevention of academic failure. There is a lack of early literacy screening tools for Portuguese preschool children. This study aims to present preliminary data results of the development and validation of the Preschool Early Literacy Screening Tool (Rastreio de Literacia Emergente Pré-escolar; RaLEPE). A pilot study was carried out with a sample of 128 screenings, answered by the parents/ caregivers of the Portuguese children between 3 to 6-years-old. The analysis of results shows the reliability of the tool, with a very good internal consistency for RaLEPE total scale and the different sections. Therefore, preliminary results of this study indicate internal validity of the RaLEPE and confirm this as a screening tool usefulness for early intervention childhood to provide early diagnosis and contribute to early intervention for children with language and learning disorders.

La investigación sugiere hasta el momento que la detección temprana en los años preescolares puede tener un papel importante en la prevención del fracaso académico. Carecemos, no obstante, de una falta de herramientas de evaluación de la alfabetización temprana para los niños preescolares portugueses. Este estudio tiene como objetivo presentar los resultados de los datos preliminares del desarrollo y validación de la Herramienta de detección de alfabetización temprana en edad preescolar (Rastreio de Literacia Emergente Pré-escolar; RaLEPE). Se realizó un estudio piloto con una muestra de 128 encuestas, respondidas por los padres / cuidadores de los niños portugueses de 3 a 6 años. El análisis de resultados muestra la fiabilidad de la herramienta, con una muy buena consistencia interna para la escala total RaLEPE y los diferentes tramos. Por lo tanto, los resultados preliminares de este estudio indican una alta validez interna del RaLEPE y lo confirman como una herramienta de utilidad para la intervención temprana en la infancia de cara a brindar un diagnóstico e intervención temprana en niños con trastornos del lenguaje y el aprendizaje.This work is funded by the Science and Technology Foundation (FCT) , the Human Capital Operational Programme (POHP) and the North Regional Operacional Programme (PORNorte) , through European Social Fund and Nacional Fund MCTES (Grant number: SFRH/BD/138797/2018) and funded by CIEd - Research Centre on Education, Institute of Education, University of Minho, projects UIDB/01661/2020 and UIDP/01661/2020, through national funds of FCT/MCTES-PT.Universidad de Castilla-la Mancha (UCLM)Universidade do MinhoSapage, SaraCruz-Santos, Anabela20212021-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/1822/75971eng2174-52182174-521810.5209/rlog.71711info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-21T12:45:41Zoai:repositorium.sdum.uminho.pt:1822/75971Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T19:43:34.566195Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
