Abstract
An examination of measurement invariance across maternal and paternal reports of child symptoms on the preschool Child Behavior Checklist was conducted. Changes in model fit indices indicate that configural and metric, but not scalar, invariance, are present across parent reports, and suggest that parents report child symptoms at different thresholds.
