(TGMD-2): 3-11 years ● Bruiniks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (BOTMP): 4.5-14.5 years ● Hughes Basic Gross Motor Assessment (BGMA): 6-12 years ● Gubbay Test of Motor Proficiency: 8-12 years
34
What is the purpose, procedure, and benefits of a screening?
■ Purpose: to identify children who are in need of further evaluation ■ Procedure: Norm referenced (Denver Developmental Screening test 2) ■ Quick, easy to administer (10-20 minutes, by a layperson)
35
What is the purpose of an evaluation?
● To assess current specific skills ● To establish long and short term goals and objectives ● To monitor progress
36
What's reliability?
Consistency of scores across different | occasions of measurements or different examiners, or of items within the instrument.
37
Whats validity?
determination of whether a measurement actually measures what it purports to measure; how well does it measure what it was designed to measure.
38
What is construct validity?
the consistency to which a construct (concept) is actually measured (PEDI: construct- change in functional behaviors is age related)
39
What's content validity?
the accuracy with which an instrument | measures the factors under study; the instrument measures what it is supposed to measure
40
What is concurrent validity?
``` comparing the instrument with a known accepted instrument (PEDI vs. Batelle) ```
41
What is a developmental delay/ disorder?
A significant delay or disorder in one or more functional areas
42
What are the functional areas assessed in developmental delays/ disorder?
``` ● Cognitive ● Language and communicative ● Adaptive ● Social emotional ● Motor development ```
43
A _____% delay in one functional area or a _____% delay in each of 2 (or more) functional areas (fallacy)
33 % for one | 25 % for two
44
A score of _____ SD below the mean in one functional area or a score of _____ SD below the mean in each of 2 functional areas
2. 0 for one | 1. 5 for two
45
What is the purpose of the PDMS-2/ Peabody?
● Identify children whose gross and fine motor skills are delayed or aberrant relative to a normative group ● Permit an in depth analysis of a wide range of gross and fine motor skills that may have been identified as questionable by prior screening or by observation ● Enable the examiner to obtain knowledge about the skills a child has mastered, those currently developing, and those not in the child’s repertoire

How do you score a Peabody/ PDMS?
Item scoring: specified on score sheet ---“0”: child cannot or will not attempt item, or attempt does not show that skill is emerging --- “1”: performance shows clear resemblance to item criterion but doesn’t fully meet criterion ---“2”: child performs item according to specified criterion in the normal, typical way
49
What is the Albert Infant Motor Scales (AIMS)?
* Norm referenced * 0-18 months * Observational (half hour) * “window” indicating highest and lowest skills observed - -- Credited 1 point for each item performed in window - --Credited 1 point for each item below window * 4 positional categories, child placed in each position * Score sheet resembles growth chart, percentile ranks included * Photos and line drawings included in manual along with criteria for each item * Levels off at 15.5 months with one skill differentiating between 5th and 90th percentiles * Only includes percentile ranking for scores as low as 5th percentile (1.5 SD from mean) * Skill criteria require normal positioning of the limbs (very NDT based) * not recommended for children with severe motor disorder * Average age of skill acquisition provided for each item (age of 50% achievement, 90% achievement
50

True
51
True or false: the PEDI can be used on children 6 moths- 7.5 years and no older.

52
What is the GMFM and what does it do?
* Criterion referenced * Measure GM function in children with CP (how much can they do?) * Measure magnitude of change in GM function over time or after treatment in children with CP * Assess the effectiveness of intervention/treatment on motor function outcomes for children with CP * Developed for use in children with CP * All items can be completed by a 5 year old with normal GM function
53

``` 88 items assigned to 1 of 5 dimensions ■ Lying and rolling (17) ■ Sitting (20) ■ Crawling and kneeling (14) ■ Standing (13) ■ Walking, running and jumping (24) ```
54
True or False: The GMFM is assessed on a 0-10 scale
``` False: 0-3 scoring key ■ 0= does not initiate ■ 1 = initiates, less than 10% completion ■ 2=partially completes (10-100%) ■ 3= 100% completion ```
