The purpose of this study was to study the responses of Iranian elementary school children to the Perceived Competence Scale for Children. The items were translated with minor changes in wording to make them more comprehensible to Iranian children. The scale was administered to 199 children ages 9 to 11 in Grades 4 to 5 in four elementary schools from two socioeconomically different districts in Shiraz. Analysis showed satisfactory internal reliability. Intercorrelations among 28 items were factor analyzed using principal component analysis followed by both varimax and oblimin rotations. Three factors emerged with both rotations: Cognitive Competence, Social Competence, and Physical Competence. Sex differences were not significant for factor scores except that girls rated themselves as significantly more socially competent than boys did.
本研究的目的是探究伊朗小学生对儿童感知能力量表的反应。这些项目在措辞上做了细微改动后进行翻译，以使伊朗儿童更容易理解。该量表施用于设拉子两个社会经济状况不同地区的四所小学4至5年级的199名9至11岁儿童。分析显示内部信度良好。对28个项目之间的相互关系进行主成分分析，随后进行方差最大化旋转和斜交旋转的因子分析。两种旋转方式均得出三个因子：认知能力、社交能力和身体能力。除了女孩对自己社交能力的评分显著高于男孩外，因子得分的性别差异不显著。
