This evaluation tool has been improved based on research and feedback from users. The package provides in-depth assessment and training or remediation of gross and fine motor skills for children from birth through six years of age. Six subtests (reflexes, stationary, locomotion, object manipulation, grasping and visual-motor integration) reliably measure interrelated motor abilities and has been standardized on 2,003 children.
The PDMS-2 allows users to determine a child's Gross Motor Quotient, Fine Motor Quotient and Total Motor Quotient. New Profile/Summary Form can be used to record a child's scores: age equivalents, raw scores, percentiles and standard scores. The forms graphically display the child's performance to determine strengths, weakness and progress. The Kit includes 25 new Examiner Record Booklets, Illustrated Guide for Administering and Scoring, 25 provile forms, an activities program manual, the new black and white Peabody Motor Development Chart, manipulatives and a sturdy storage box. Optional wall chart measures 38" x 26".
