Supplementary file 1_Through children’s own lenses: assessing risky play tendencies via a tablet-based interface.pdf

This study addresses this gap by introducing a tablet-based, pictorial assessment tool [the Digitized Willingness to Risk in Play Scale–Pictorial (d-WRiPS-P)] designed to assess preschool children’s risky play tendencies through their own lenses.</p>Methods<p>A total of 198 Turkish children aged 5–6 years participated in the study.

Both convenience sampling and maximum variation sampling methods were used to recruit participants for the group. In the study, the validity of the d-WRiPS-P was evaluated using CFA with WLSMV estimation, and its reliability was determined using Ordinal Omega;measurement invariance was tested across gender and upper/lower 27% temperament groups, and the scores of the WRiPS-P and d-WRiPS-P were compared using Pearson correlation and paired samples t-test.</p>Results<p>This study provides evidence that the d-WRiPS-P is a valid and reliable tool for assessing risky play tendencies in 5–6-year-old children.
