Like previous versions, the DP-3 evaluates children's functioning in five key areas, in just 20 to 40 minutes. However, this edition adds norm-based standard scores, an expanded age range, updated item content, clearer interpretive guidelines, a nationally representative standardization sample, and new empirical studies demonstrating its reliability and validity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComprehensive Yet Quick    \u003c\/strong\u003eDesigned to evaluate children from birth through age 12 years, 11 months, the DP-3 includes 180 items, each describing a particular skill. The respondent simply indicates whether or not the child has mastered the skill in question. The DP-3 provides a General Development score as well as the following scale scores:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePhysical:\u003c\/span\u003e Large- and small-muscle coordination, strength, stamina, flexibility, and sequential motor skills\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eAdaptive Behavior:\u003c\/span\u003e Ability to cope independently with the environment- to eat, dress, work, use current \u003c\/span\u003etechnology,\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e and take care of self and others\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eSocial-Emotional:\u003c\/span\u003e Interpersonal skills, social\/emotional understanding, functioning in social situations, \u003c\/span\u003emanner\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e in which \u003c\/span\u003echild\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e relates to peers and adults\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCognitive:\u003c\/span\u003e Intellectual abilities and skills prerequisite to academic achievement\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eCommunication:\u003c\/span\u003e Expressive and receptive communication skills, including written, spoken, and gestural language\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eWithin each scale, basals and ceilings are used, so you don't have to administer all 180 items.

You can administer the test to large groups of children knowing that it will alert you to any significant problems that may be present. Or you can use the DP-3 when you have a specific question about a particular child. It's an effective way to investigate puzzling behavior, respond to parental concerns, or follow up on teacher observations. The test can lead to answers even when you have only a hunch that the child may have a problem.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold; color: #000000;\"\u003eA Convenient New Administration Option\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eWhile a parent interview is the preferred method of administration, the DP-3 offers an alternative that's useful when a face-to-face meeting is not possible.

This gives you flexibility in using, reporting, and explaining test results. For example, you might choose standard scores for eligibility determination or progress monitoring; age equivalents for parent conferences; and stanines or percentiles for school records. Norms are based on a sample of 2,216 typically developing children representative of the U.S. population in regard to ethnicity, geography, and socioeconomic status.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eComplete DP-3 Kit Includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Examiner's Manual, 25 Interview Forms and 25 Parent\/Caregiver Checklists.
