Resumen
The GlnA-E Evaluation Tool ("Gestaltung von Interaktonsgelegenheiten im Alltag-Evaluation"; see Weltzien et al., 2017) represents the improved version of a video-based observational and reflective tool for research projects in everyday practice. This paper first presents an overview of the theoretical constructs and features (scale and item properties) of GlnA-E's three scales. It then offers situational and personal correlatives of interaction quality in everyday teaching. It turns out that the tool can be employed for a wide range of settings, group situations, and age ranges, and that the caregivers’ interaction-related skills vary widely. A slight positive impact on interaction quality was observed for interactions with younger children (up to four years of age) and so-called "onlookers".
