Assessing The Special Needs Of ChildrenChild Development Media » Assessment & Planning » Assessing Children with Special NeedsAssessing the special needs of children requires an understanding of a child's special needs. Standardized assessments can identify children with special needs and the services required by the special needs of children. The ASQ is a screening and tracking program for infants and young children, from 4 months to 5 years of age, who are at risk for developmental delays. This parent-completed child-monitoring system is an effective, economical way to identify infants and young children who require further developmental evaluation. Available in English and Spanish.
The Guide gives professionals the knowledge they need to use the AEPS™ accurately and effectively. Includes a "Quick Start" section that makes AEPS™ easier for new users.
This video seeks to simplify the scoring and interpretation of Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) results while a home visitor guides a mother through the process as she uses this popular system. Includes: VHS
This video identifies the importance of early identification of visual impairment in infants with severe and multiple disabilities. A pediatric optometrist demonstrates five common vision tests checking ocular health: Cover-Uncover Test, Pupillary Response, Retinoscopy, Preferential Looking/Teller Cards, and the Visual Evoked Potential. Includes: VHS
The video is a companion to the ASQ and shows a home visit with a family who have three children. Available in DVD and VHS formats.
ASQ: SE was developed to assess self-regulation, compliance, communication, adaptive, autonomy, and interaction with people in children from 3 months to five years.
This book will help practitioners and parents understand and treat young children diagnosed with various disorders such as Multisystem Developmental Disorder (MSDD), Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD), and Autistic Disorder
The AEPS™ Curriculum for Birth to Three years allows the curricula professional to match a child's established IFSP/IEP goals and objectives with age-appropriate, activity-based interventions that correspond to the six areas scored on the AEPS™ test.
The AEPS™ Curriculum for Three to Six Years allows the curricula professional to match a child's established IESP/IEP goals and objectives with age-appropriate, activity-based interventions that correspond to the six areas scored on the AEPS™ test.
The tests for both age levels are divided into six developmental areas, each subdivided into a progression of skills. Professionals complete assessments while children and their caregivers engage in everyday activities.
The guide defines social and emotional competence, explains the importance of screening in these areas of behavior, and offers strategies for using the questionnaires.
Social competence and mastery of communication skills are vital for children with multiple disabilities. This series discusses assessment methods appropriate for any child with severe disabiltites and offers keys to making reliable observations. Includes: Three VHS/DVD
Much more than just a measurement tool, the activity based, field-tested AEPS links assessment, intervention, and evaluation for children from birth to six years who have disabilities or are at risk for developmental delays.
This presentation explores the initial results from a retrospective video study assessing child and parent purposeful social-emotional initiations and responses collected across four time points from children under 15 months.
This presentation, by Sandra Maestro and Filippo Muratori, provides a brief history of the research and methodology for treating autism in infancy based on the retrospective analysis of home movies.

Transdisciplinary Play-Based Assessment (TPBA) is both an assessment and intervention process that involves a child in structured and instructional play situations that provide opportunities for developmental observations of cognitive, social-emotional, communication and language, and sensorimotor abilities. This video offers the opportunity for hands-on practice in note-taking and observation. Available in VHS format only.
TABS is specifically designed to identify critical temperament and self-regulation problems that can indicate a child’s risk for developmental delay as early as possible. Includes: Set includes Screener, Assessment Tool, and Manual
