Bayley Scales of Infant Development II Assessment
Quickly acquire the knowledge and skills you need to confidently
administer, score, and interpret the Bayley Scales
The Bayley Scales measure the mental and motor development
and test behavior of infants from one to forty-two months of age.
The Scales may be used to describe the current developmental functioning
of infants and to assist in diagnosis and treatment planning for
infants with developmental delays or disabilities. In order to
use them properly, professionals need an authoritative source
of advice and guidance on how to administer, score, and interpret
these tests. Essentials of Bayley Scales of Infant Development
II Assessment is the first and only book to provide state-of-the-art
guidelines for the Bayley Scales.
Like all the volumes in the Essentials
of P sychological Assessment series, this book is designed
to help busy clinicians and researchers quickly acquire the knowledge
and skills they need to make optimal use of a major psychological
assessment instrument. Each concise chapter features numerous
callout boxes highlighting key concepts, bulleted points, and
extensive illustrative material, as well as test questions that
help you gauge and reinforce your grasp of the information covered.
The initial chapters of Essentials of Bayley Scales of Infant
Development II Assessment provide step-by-step instruction
on test administration, scoring, and interpretation. In the following
chapters, the authors provide expert assessment of the relative
strengths and weaknesses of the Bayley Scales, valuable advice
on their clinical applications, and several illuminating case
reports.
