Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Indirect measures, such as having children tell stories about pictures, would be the best choice for measuring pre-teens' feelings about puberty since it allows them to express themselves in a more creative and less intimidating way. Personal interviews and group discussions may not be as comfortable for all children and may not elicit honest responses. Detailed questionnaires may also not capture the depth of their emotions as effectively.
