A Method for Developmental Assessment for German-Speaking Countries

Published Online:February 26, 2015https://doi.org/10.1027/0044-3409.216.3.154

Abstract

The ET 6–6 presents a procedure for the assessment of a developmental status in children from 6 months to 6 years of age that uses experimentally based test tasks for a great variety of developmental skills. The results are shown in a multidimensional and age-specific profile. The instrument has been standardized by testing 950 children.
