Abstract For children,the transition from kindergarten to primary school is an important milestone in their lives. To be competent for school lives,children must be well prepared for primary school entrance. School readiness is not only closely related to children's school performance,but also it can predict childrens future career achievements,even social status. Despite the importance of school readiness,the current study on school readiness lacks an integrated assessment system. Based on this,combined with the analysis of bibliometrics,from the perspective of domain-general and domain-specific,we construct two dimensions including domain-general cognitive readiness and domain-specific academic readiness,and put forward a children-oriented,children-appropriate,interesting assessment system and corresponding test paradigms and tasks of school readiness.
