12
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

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
Q

3 skill areas (subtest) of gross motor section of PDMS

A

Body control
Body transport
Object control

26
Q

Body control

A

Measures a child’s ability to control their body movements, balance, and coordination.
Tasks include maintaining balance, shifting weight, and performing controlled movements.

27
Q

Body transport

A

Assesses locomotion skills such as crawling, walking, running, and jumping.
Measures a child’s ability to move from one place to another.

28
Q

Object control

A

Focuses on fine motor skills related to manipulating objects.
Tasks involve catching, throwing, kicking, rolling and striking

29
Q

2 skill areas (subtests) of fine motor section of PDMS

A

Hand manipulation
Eye hand coordination

30
Q

Hand manipulation

A

Evaluates fine motor dexterity and precision.
Includes tasks like picking up small objects, stringing beads, and manipulating tools.

31
Q

Eye hand coordination

A

Assesses the integration of visual and motor skills.
Tasks involve copying shapes, drawing, and other activities that require precise hand-eye coordination.

32
Q

Supplemental subtest: physical fitness

A

Added to reflect current interest in overweight, obesity, and fitness testing of preschool children.
Assesses physical fitness components like strength, flexibility, and endurance.

33
Q

Composites (PDMS)

A

global indexes of motor performance generated by results of subtests

34
Q

Are composites or individual subtest scores more valid + reliable?

A

Composites

35
Q

What is the purpose of determining chronological age in PDMS?

A

Calculated in months to determine the entry point of the test

36
Q

Scoring of the PDMS

A

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
Q

Basal level

A

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
Q

Ceiling level

A

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
Q

How is the PDMS scored?

A

Online scoring system is utilized

40
Q
