Purpose: Allows clients to identify their personal behavioral responses and develop strategies for enhanced participation
Method: A questionnaire measures individual’s reactions to daily sensory experiences
Population: 11 – 65 yrs		 Name: Coping Inventory and Early Coping Inventory
Purpose: Assesses coping habits, skills, and behaviors, including effectiveness, style, strengths, and vulnerabilities to develop intervention plans
Method: Questionnaires
Population: 3-16 yrs (Observation Form), 15 yrs and above (Self-Rated Form), 4 – 36 mos (Early Coping Inventory)		 Name: Revised Knox Preschool Play Scale
Purpose: Observations of play skills to differentiate developmental play abilities, strengths and weaknesses, and interest areas
Method: Observations (organized by 6 month increments) administered in natural indoor/outdoor environment
Population: 0 – 6 yrs
Name: First STEP Screening Test for Evaluating Preschoolers
Method: Assesses areas identified by the IDEA; tabletop tasks administered and observations are used
Population: 2 yrs, 9 mos – 6 yrs, 2 mos		 Name: Peabody Developmental Motor Scales
Purpose: Standardized rating scales of gross & fine motor development
Method: Test items administered one level below child’s expected motor age in order to maintain a basal age level
Population: Birth – 6 yrs (with motor, hearing, and/or speech/language disorders)		 Name: Earhardt Developmental Vision Assessment
Purpose: Behavior rating scale to determine visual motor development that assesses involuntary and voluntary visual patterns
Method: 271 test items organized and sequenced developmentally
Population: Birth – 6 mos (6 mo considered norm; can be used with older children)		 Name: Test of Playfulness
Purpose: Assesses a child’s playfulness based on observations according to 4 aspects of play
Method: Observed behaviors are rated according to intrinsic motivation, internal control, disengagement from constraints of relating, and framing
Population: 15 mos – 10 yrs
Name: Hawaii Early Learning Profile (HELP)
Purpose: Non-standardized scale of developmental levels. An educational curriculum-referenced test that assesses six areas of function (cognitive, gross motor, fine motor, language, social-emotional, self-help)
Method: Administered in natural environment; developmentally approp. Items administered according to protocols
Population: Birth – 3 yrs (without develop. delay, disabilities, or at risk), HELP for preschoolers 3 – 6 yrs (with or without delays)		 Name: Toddler and Infant Motor Evaluation
