Educ., Iwate Univ., Vol.52 No.1 (Oct.1992) 187`194 A Cross-Cultural Study of the Denver Prescreening QuestionnaireAZUMA* June 15,1992) DevelopmentalNoriaki (Received Abstract The purpose of this study is to examine the variation of the scores of the DPDQ by different cultural factors, especially the urban and weather factors. Another purpose of this study is to compare the scores of the DPDQ in a rural village and an urban city with those in Tokyo and the Yaeyama Islands. In summer, the scores of the DPDQ in a rural village were significantly lower than those in an urban city.

But in winter, the scores of the DPDQ in a rural village did not differ significantly from those in an urban city. The reason was the difference of the mothers' life between a rural village and an urban city. In summer and winter, the scores of the DPDQ in a rural village, an urban city, Tokyo and the Yaeyama islands differed significantly. The reasons were that the persons who answered the DPDQ and the places where it was administered varied widely.

When we evaluate child development by using the DPDQ, we need to consider these factors.
