The Preschool Assessment of the Classroom Environment (PACE) scale is described. The results from a pilot study involving 20 preschool classrooms showed that different aspects of the management, organization, and operation of classroom environments were significantly related to both caregiver and child outcomes. The particular pattern of findings confirmed the hypothesized relationships among the independent and dependent variables. The results are discussed in terms of the use of the PACE for proactively affecting the changes in the classroom ecology in order to produce changes in child behavior.
