Abstrakt: This article describes a study using the Application of Cognitive Functions Scale (ACFS), a curriculum-based dynamic assessment (DA) for use with young children. The ACFS has been used primarily with children in the US. This study explores the validity of the ACFS with a sample of 89 Dutch children aged 5-6 from six regular primary schools. The results raise questions about the validity of the ACFS as a DA procedure for use with Dutch children of primary school age. Issues concerning the use of DA with young children are discussed as well as issues regarding the specific content of the subscales. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
