Adams, Judith L.; And Others – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1984
The predictive efficiency of Home Observation for Measurement of Environment (HOME) with 51 infants from low-income families at-risk for developmental retardation was assessed. At both 6 and 18 months, the discriminant function of the HOME was found to be moderately sensitive in identifying children in the low-IQ group. (Author/CL)

Bradley, Robert H.; Caldwell, Bettye M. – American Journal of Mental Deficiency, 1977
Home environments of 91 6-month-old infants were assessed with the Home Observation for Measurement of the Environment Inventory to predict whether a child would be low IQ (below 70), low average (70 to 89), or average to superior (90 and above) at age 3 years. (Author)
