Developmental Programming For Infants And Young Children
- 1. Developmental Programming for Infants and Young Children The Early Intervention Developmental Profile (EIDP)
- 2. What is the EIDP? Developmental assessment for children from birth to 36 months An assessment designed for a team to use in planning intervention Not specifically diagnostic, but provides a range of development
- 3. Who Developed the EIDP? An interdisciplinary team including OT, PT, SLP, Psychologist, and Social Worker. Team was based at University of Michigan’s Institute for Study of Mental Retardation and Related Disabilities (ISMRRD Profile)
- 4. Purpose To identify strengths and weaknesses Provide a developmental range Identify emerging skills Provides for periodic re-assessment Bridge gap between assessment and intervention
- 5. Format Parent-therapist collaboration in play based, informal assessment environment Train across disciplines so one professional can administer, score, and interpret findings with consultation from the key professional
- 6. Design Each of six domains reflects current developmental theory. Each of the items (299)within each domain were selected with careful analysis
- 10. Criteria for Item Selection: Validation of the Scales FIRST: The item for inclusion must have appeared in 2 recognized scales OR: it could be an original item if the construct to be assessed did not exist in another recognized scale
- 11. Criteria for Item Selection Each item reviewed by project staff member most knowledgeable Items selected had to represent all aspects of development (e.g. Language) Items selected needed to represent the developmental accomplishments for that range of development
- 12. Age Norms Not standardized Strong construct validity Criterion referenced
- 13. Reliability Interrater: Page 3 in Volume 1 Range from .80 to .97
- 14. Administration 1. Determine Chronological Age: In Months 09 10 12 07 10 25 42 1 11 17 21 08 1 YEAR 11 months 17 days=24 months CORRECTED AGE: FOR PREMATURITY
- 15. Administration Begin with interacting with child and parent What are we looking for in the front end?
- 16. Administration Proceed with Perceptual Fine Motor Scale Use the 1” cube item in the child’s age range OR in range you feel is closer to ability
- 17. F
- 18. P Continue within this age range in P/FM Then proceed to Cognition, Language, Gross Motor (much of the Self Care and Social Emotional items from parent/caregiver report but also will observe some behaviors as well.
- 19. When Do I Stop Administration..… First: Establish Basal: the age range preceding the child’s earliest failure Second: Establish Ceiling: the age range containing the child’s highest passed item.
- 20. Basal From the first passed 1 “ cube item, continue with progressively EASIER items until: Passes 6 consecutive items OR Passes all items in two consecutive age ranges
- 21. Ceiling More difficult items from the initial passed item until child has failed 1. Six consecutive items 2. Two age ranges
- 22. P P P P P P P P P P P F F F F F F Ceiling Basal Hernandez C.A. 8 months
- 23. How do we get the Developmental Age? There is no D.A. in this assessment There is a Developmental Range The highest number of a sequence of passes, plot that on the profile graph
- 25. Pass or Fail… … Pass (P): Criteria is met Fail (F): Criteria is not met Pass/Fail: (PF): Emerging skill O Ommitted
