Validity and Reliability: Early Childhood’s Locomotor Capability Assessment Instruments

Early childhood development in learning is significant. A child’s development can be seen through the child’s motor development. The child's motor can be divided into two, namely gross motor and fine motor. This research aims to develop early childhood’s locomotor capability assessment instruments using development research with RDR (Research, Development, Research) development models. The child’s locomotor is included in the development of gross motors. The children include leaping, jumping, and running. The instrument assessment of early childhood’s locomotor capability at Kelompok ATaman Kanak-Kanak Gugus VI of Buleleng Regency was the study's subject by designing the blueprint and developing into a questionnaire with 12 statements. Experts in their field have tested each statement item so that an instrument's validity and reliability can be fulfilled. Developed instruments have very high validity and reliability, with scores of 0.91 and 0.81. These results indicate that the instruments that have been developed can be applied and used as they should be in learning.
