Evaluative: determines appropriate plan and goals and measures change over time
8
Q
what does test-retest tell you
A
reliability in a test over a period of time (the other kind of reliability is inter-rater)
9
Q
what is inter-rater reliability
A
the degree to which DIFFERENT raters obtain the same score
10
Q
construct, concurrent and predictive are all parts of psychometric property?
A
validity
11
Q
what is construct validity
A
does the test measure what it claims to measure
12
Q
what is concurrent validity
A
the score correlates with that of another valid test that is administered at the same tim
13
Q
what is predictive validity
A
predicting the performance on a future measure (two measures are taken at different times)f
14
Q
what does a highly sensitive test find in terms of positives and negatives
A
true positives
avoid false negatives
good at ruling out
15
Q
what does a highly specific test find in terms of positives and negatives?
A
avoids false positives
16
Q
is specificity or sensitivity probably a better measure for making sure you don’t miss someone who needed intervention?
A
Sensitivity: avoiding false negatives and therefore not missing someone who needed PT
17
Q
what kind of things in PT would you want to be super specific about?
A
fractures, surgical decision making
want to avoid false positives
18
Q
detectors at airports are specific or sensitive?
A
Sensitive: rules out, if you go through and it doesn’t beep you can be pretty certain nothing is on them
19
Q
For PT are we more concerned with specificity or sensitivity?
A
sensitivity: avoiding false negatives, making sure we’re getting to everyone we should
20
Q
Norm referenced you compare against what?

no they are considered normal
below 2SD will qualify for therapy
36
percentile rank gives what information?
relative position within normative samples and rate of change over time
37
what does it mean if percentile rank decreaes?
they are not progressing at the same rate their peers are
38
Standard scores vs age equivalent?
standard score doesn't have units
39
what is a scaled score?
who is it good for?
scaled score: performance as it relates to the ENTIRE RANGE of scores on the test
good for individuals <1 percentile of the measure. It will show performance overtime
40
What is age equivalents?
age which a score obtained correlates with tehe AVERAGE performance

unlimited number of trials
doesn't look at laterality, just if they can do it
56
how does scoring work for aims
items marked as O or NO (observed or not observed)
find "motor window" items btwn least mature and most mature skill observed in each position
score each item in the window: 1 for observed, 0 for not observed
Give a point for everything below the window
57
is parental reporting accepted for AIMS?
no! has to be observed
58
where do you start working with the kid during AIMS
start with what they're showing you then try to elicit harder motions, all to find the window
59
what is the major numeric data you are trying to get for AIMS?
percentile rank
60
what percentile rank is
normal
suspicious
abnormal
for AIMS?
normal: >16th percentile
suspicious. bwn 5th percentile and 16th percentile
abnormal: <5th percentile
61
explain the limitation in AIMS
once you get to ~15 months the difference in AIMS score is basically nothing. There's a ceiling effect

CAPE, PAC
109
JUST READ THIS SUMMARY: Standardized tests can be used as a part of an examination for screening, determining the need for therapies, evaluation, and/or monitoring progress depending on the specific test
Test selection should include consideration of a child’s age and abilities as well as the purpose of test administration
Tests need to be administered in a standard method when drawing conclusions and considering change over time and understanding of norm-referenced and criterion-referenced test development is important when interpreting examination findings
Remeber there is variability and a range of typical development in the first place
110
what are three three balls that go into milesstone aquisition?
environment/exposure
predisposition
MSK
111
what are the four developmental domains that you have to think about the interplay of for development
sensory
cognitive
motor(fine and gross)
communication
112
what is it important to educate family on in terms of development and atypical development
there is a range of normal! Walking goes up to 18 months
113
first day of last menstrual period --> time of birth is what
gestational age
114
First day of last menstrual period --> date of assessment is what age
postmenstrual age
115
date of birth to date of assessment is what age
chronological age
116
expected date of delivery --> date of assessment is what age
adjusted age
117
what standardized test that we talked about might you want to look at adjusted age in?
PDMS2
adjusts until 2 years of age
118
full term is how many weeks when they're adjusting for prematurity
40 weeks
119
what range of weeks is considered full term baby
37-42
120
what range of weeks is considered a preterm baby
<37 weeks
121
Late preterm is considered how many weeks
34-36 weeks 6 days
122
late preterm at a lot of risk for CP?
no, more moderately and very preterm
123
how many weeks is very preterm
<32
very high risk of CP
124
benefit and risk of adjusting for gestational age
benefit: qualm parents fears, maybe the kid just needs to work on growing
risk: miss something that can potentially be worked on
125
explain what CP is in as few words as possible
perminant non-progressive neuological deficit
126
is CP normally rule out or in diagnosis?
rule out
127
compare and contrast the lesion vs. the sequelle of CP
lesion: static
Sequelle: progressive
128
what is the most common kind of CP
spastic
129
characterized by slow, involuntary, convoluted, writhing movements of the fingers, hands, toes, and feet and in some cases, arms, legs, neck and tongue.
Athetosis
130
number of cases of CP in 1,000
1 or 2
131
what birth weight are you at high risk of CP?
<1,000g
| 1000-1499g
132
how many weeks of gestation does to risk of CP drastically decrease?
32 weeks and beyond
133
```
spastic
vs.
diskinetic
vs.
ataxic
```
spastic: stuck
diskinetic: involuntary, repetitive twisting
ataxic: unsteady, no coordination, NOT stuck
134
what can you see on an MRI that might point docs towards a CP diagnosis?
PVL: periventricular leukomalacia
decreased white matter (has abnormal white signal)
not direct correlation but still a risk factor
135
Can you treat PVL?
not the cause itself but you can maximize function
136
what is the GMA
who uses it?
what is it used for
gross motor assessment
Healthcare practitioners in the NICU use it.
Done to see if child is at risk of CP later in life
137
does PVL correlate super well with CP later in life?
no but it is a factor to consider for kids to be assessed for needs early
138
what is the huge concept for the NICU
there might be movement characteristics that you can observe that can cue you off to think who might need therapy before they have a true diagnosis of CP (lack of fidgetiness, only synergistic patterns of motion)
139
what is the one thing that kept coming back under unhelpful for treating CP
NDT
