摘要：
The purposes of the present study were to (1)examined the effectiveness of teachers' demographic and classroom characteristics on predicting U.S. and Taiwan public and private kindergarten teachers' DAP and DIP beliefs by using hierarchical regression; (2) identify the salient factors related to the variability of developmentally appropriate practices beliefs in the four groups. Three hundred and forty-one kindergarten teachers participated in the study. The group sizes were 119, 114, 55, and 53 for Taiwan private, Taiwan public, U. S. private, and U. S. public kindergarten teachers, respectively. A survey was used to collect data. Findings showed: (1) hierarchical regression analyses using teacher’s personal demographic variables as the first block and numbers of boys and girls as the second block were generally not effective; (2) there were different sets of best predictors from the backward regression for developmentally appropriate beliefs and for developmentally inappropriate beliefs.
