Diane Meytha Supit; Hartono Gunardi; Bernie Endyarni Medise; Jeslyn Tengkawan – Infants and Young Children, 2023
The Communication and Symbolic Behavior Scales Developmental Profile (CSBS DP) is a valid and reliable screening tool for detecting language delay in children. However, it has not been translated into the Indonesian language. This study aimed to determine the validity and internal consistency of the Indonesian-translated CSBS DP as a screening…

Abdoola, Shabnam; Swanepoel, De Wet; Van Der Linde, Jeannie – Journal of Early Intervention, 2023
The Parents' Evaluation of Developmental Status (PEDS), PEDS: Developmental Milestones (PEDS: DM) and PEDS tools (i.e., the PEDS and PEDS:DM combined for use) are parent-reported screening tools frequently used to identify young children requiring early intervention. An ideal screening tool for all contexts would be brief, inexpensive with…

DeCandia, Carmela J.; Volk, Katherine T.; Unick, George J.; Donegan, Laura Rose W. – Infants and Young Children, 2020
Young children from impoverished backgrounds experience high levels of family and environmental stress, adversely impacting developmental functioning. Early identification provides a pathway to solutions, but many children are never evaluated. In addition, the child-serving workforce lacks resources and expertise to use traditional measures.…

DeCandia, Carmela J.; Unick, George J.; Volk, Katherine T. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2021
The Neurodevelopmental Ecological Screening Tool (NEST) is a new instrument to screen children for developmental challenges. This article describes the validation of the NEST neurodevelopmental domain. Data were collected from a nationwide purposely restricted sample of caregivers of children aged 3-5 years (n = 231) living in poverty and…

Purpose: To evaluate the validity, reliability, and sensitivity of the novel Means-End Problem-Solving Assessment Tool (MEPSAT). Methods: Children with typical development and those with motor delay were assessed throughout the first 2 years of life using the MEPSAT. MEPSAT scores were validated against the cognitive and motor subscales of the…

There is a critical need for validated screening tools for autism spectrum disorder in very young children so families can access tailored intervention services as early as possible. Few screeners exist for children between the recommended screening ages of 18-24 months. This study examined the utility of a new autism-specific parent-report…

Cunha, Ana C. B.; Berkovits, Michelle D.; Albuquerque, Karolina A. – Infants and Young Children, 2018
Developmental assessment scales are important tools for determining developmental delays and planning preventive interventions. One broad assessment scale used to evaluate child development is the Battelle Developmental Inventories (BDIs). The BDI-2 has a standardized version in English with good psychometric properties and a translated version in…

Hampton, Lauren H.; Curtis, Philip R.; Roberts, Megan Y. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
Borrowing from a clinical psychology observational methodology, thin-slice observations were used to assess autism characteristics in toddlers. Thin-slices are short observations taken from a longer behavior stream which are assigned ratings by multiple raters using a 5-point scale. The raters' observations are averaged together to assign a…

Greenwood, Charles R.; Walker, Dale; Buzhardt, Jay; Irvin, Dwight; Schnitz, Alana G.; Jia, Fan – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2018
Universal screening and progress monitoring measures are increasingly of interest to early interventionists who make decisions about the services provided to young children. A measure of infant-toddlers' growth in early movement, the "Early Movement Indicator" ("EMI"), was reported in 2002. However, the EMI has remained an…

Macrine, Sheila L.; Heji, Hayat; Sabri, Amel; Dalton, Sara – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2015
Developmental screening has become an established component of child health programs in many developed countries. The research objective of this project was to translate and adapt a developmental assessment (Oregon Project Skills Inventory) for use with young children with visual impairments who speak Arabic. The study was prompted by the lack of…

Miles, Sandra; Fulbrook, Paul; Mainwaring-Mägi, Debra – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2018
Universal screening of very early school-age children (age 4-7 years) is important for early identification of learning problems that may require enhanced learning opportunity. In this context, use of standardized instruments is critical to obtain valid, reliable, and comparable assessment outcomes. A wide variety of standardized instruments is…

Moodie, Shannon; Daneri, Paula; Goldhagen, Samantha; Halle, Tamara; Green, Katie; LaMonte, Lauren – US Department of Health and Human Services, 2014
For children age birth to five, physical, cognitive, linguistic, and social-emotional growth and development occur at a rapid pace. While all children in this age range may not reach developmental milestones (e.g., smiling, saying first words, taking first steps) at the same time, development that does not happen within an expected timeframe can…
