Sample text

No more than three trials allowed for each item. If infant fails to meet full criterion, the behavior is scored at the next lower response level. Based upon the infant’s outcome on the test, he or she is described as average, low average, below average, or far below average. Psychometric Characteristics: Content validity: Expert review of items by experienced pediatric physical therapists, occupational therapists, and psychologists. Item analysis funded by the Foundation for Physical Therapy (APTA).

The Infant Behavior Record helps assess the nature of the child’s social and objective orientations toward his environment as expressed in attitudes, interests, emotional energy, activity, and tendencies to approach or withdraw from stimulation. Administration: The test is individually administered with scoring according to the test manual. A binary scoring system of pass/fail is used. Scoring of the Mental Scale yields a Mental Development Index (MDI) for the child. Information from the motor scale is expressed as a Psychomotor Development Index (PDI).

Thus, if these ethnicity differences were not taken into consideration when using the PDMS, the outcome of the tests might indicate that the child of African American descent was performing gross motor skills at an age-appropriate level, when in fact, the child actually had a delay when compared to his peers. The use of culturally sensitive standardized tests and measures would most likely control for these variables when the therapist attempts to identify “typical” and “atypical” development. The acculturation of the child also plays a major role in the assessment.
