Q

What is the age equivalent score

A

Mean age represented by a test score

Unique to peds

Most layman friendly way to show development

Be careful with how much it is used; can be unhelpful and can limit showing strengths and how to maximize capacity

Only refers to one domain of development

Q

Function of DMQ

A

Helps understand significance of delay by creating ratio

Developmental age/chronological age X 100

100 is normal/average

Q

AIMS bracket

A

Formed between least and most mature behaviors

-Give one point for each behavior observed in the bracket
-Give one point for each point prior to the least mature behavior

Q

How to calculate corrected age

A

Used in babies born before 38 weeks
Subtract # of weeks premature from chronological age

Only performed until age 2 (residual delay will hopefully be grown out of)

23
Q

What is the PDMS 3

A

Standardized test of gross + fine motor skills, and physical fitness

Looks at major developmental milestones in young children

24
Q

Age range for PDMS

A

birth-5 years

25
3 skill areas (subtest) of gross motor section of PDMS
Body control Body transport Object control
26
Body control
Measures a child’s ability to control their body movements, balance, and coordination. Tasks include maintaining balance, shifting weight, and performing controlled movements.
27
Body transport
Assesses locomotion skills such as crawling, walking, running, and jumping. Measures a child’s ability to move from one place to another.
28
Object control
Focuses on fine motor skills related to manipulating objects. Tasks involve catching, throwing, kicking, rolling and striking
29
2 skill areas (subtests) of fine motor section of PDMS
Hand manipulation Eye hand coordination
30
Hand manipulation
Evaluates fine motor dexterity and precision. Includes tasks like picking up small objects, stringing beads, and manipulating tools.
31
Eye hand coordination
Assesses the integration of visual and motor skills. Tasks involve copying shapes, drawing, and other activities that require precise hand-eye coordination.
32
Supplemental subtest: physical fitness
Added to reflect current interest in overweight, obesity, and fitness testing of preschool children. Assesses physical fitness components like strength, flexibility, and endurance.
33
Composites (PDMS)
global indexes of motor performance generated by results of subtests
34
Are composites or individual subtest scores more valid + reliable?
Composites
35
What is the purpose of determining chronological age in PDMS?
Calculated in months to determine the entry point of the test
36
Scoring of the PDMS
Items scored on 3 point scale 0: child cannot or will not attempt, or attempt does not show skill is emerging 1: clear resemblance to item criteria, but not fully met 2: Item is performed according to criteria
37
Basal level
child receives three 2s in a row at the entry point (or before, if entry point is not a 2) All items below basal level are scored as a 2
38
Ceiling level
child scores 0 on three items in a row on harder tasks testing is discontinued after ceiling is met. All items above are a 0
39
How is the PDMS scored?
Online scoring system is utilized
40
BOT 2
Bruininks-Oseretsky test of motor proficency 2
41
What is the BOT
Standardized test for gross and fine motor skills
42
Is the BOT norm or criterion referenced
Norm
43
Ages for BOT
4-21
43
4 modes of administration for BOT
Complete form Short form Select composites Select subsets
44
Composites of BOT
Fine manual control Manual coordination Body coordination ** Strength + agility **
45
Fine manual control
Control and coordination of distal musculature; hands and fingers esp for writing + drawing
46
Subtests of fine manual control
Fine motor precision Fine motor integration
47
Manual coordination
Control and coordination of the arms and hands esp for object manipulation
48
Subtests of manual coordination
Manual dexterity Upper limb coordination (visual tracking w coordinated arm + hand movement)
49
Body coordination
Control and coordination of large musculature that aids in maintaining posture + balance
50
Subtests of body coordination
BL coordination Balance
51
BL coordination
Tasks require body contro, and sequential + simulataenous coordination of upper + lower limbs Jumping in place (switching legs) Tapping of hands and feet
52
Balance
Evaluates motor control skills integral for maintaining posture when standing, walking, or performing common activities Walking forward on line SLS on balance beam
53
