Abstract EN

The current study aimed to construct Battery of a Developmental Aptitude Diagnostics Scales (Attention-Perception-Memory) for primary school students in the Kingdom of Bahrain norms for the performance of age groups (6.5-13) on battery scales.

The tool consisted of 19 subscales distributed under three main dimensions: attention, perception, and memory.

The study followed the descriptive survey method in a stratified, multi-stage random sampling method.

The initial version of the battery applied in 3 pilot samples totaling (540) to reach the battery's initial characteristics and verify the indicators of validity and reliability of the scores obtained from the battery scales.

The basic standardization sample consisted of (2417) students.

The results showed coefficient's validity ranged between (0.50-0.82), and the coefficients of reliability values ranged between (0.88 -0.60).

It also found differences in performance on DADS battery scales, with increasing age, in favor of the older age group.

The study recommended adopting the DADS battery and its application in the uses for which it developed.
