这项研究首次建立了肯尼亚对乌鸦有色递进矩阵(RCPM)的标准化，RCPM是一种广泛用于评估幼儿学习能力的非语言工具。在纳库鲁市的小学收集了1370名6至10岁儿童的样本，纳库鲁市是肯尼亚总人口的一个地区。生成了按年龄组划分的男孩和女孩的百分位数分数。参与者的人口统计和学术信息是通过教师问卷收集的。该工具的重测可靠性是通过每隔两周对随机选择的50名儿童重新进行瑞文测试来建立的。内部一致性信度用Cronbach‘s Alpha进行检验。根据目前的数据，RCPM似乎是用于肯尼亚儿童筛查的可靠和有效的工具。
This study established for the first time a Kenyan standardization of the Raven's Coloured Progressive Matrices (RCPM), a nonverbal instrument widely used to assess academic aptitude in young children. The sample of 1370 children between the ages of six and ten years was gathered in the primary schools of the Municipality of Nakuru, a region representative of the overall population of Kenya. Percentile scores for boys and girls by age group were generated. Demographic and academic information on participants was gathered using a teacher questionnaire. Test-retest reliability for the instrument was established by re-administering the Raven's to a randomly selected subsample of 50 children at a two week interval. Internal consistency reliability was generated using Cronbach's alpha. Using the current data, the RCPM appears to be a reliable and valid instrument for use in screening Kenyan children.
