Test Review

摘要

The Developmental Assessment of Young Children—Second Edition (DAYC-2) was developed for children from birth through 5 years of age to assess development across five domains: Cognitive, Communication, Social-Emotional, Physical Development, and Adaptive Behavior (Voress & Maddox, 2013). The purposes of the assessment are to identify children who may be experiencing developmental delays in any of the five domains, to monitor children's progress in early childhood programs, and for research. Examiners may administer all domains to derive the General Development Index (GDI) or only those pertaining to an area(s) of concern. Domain and subdomain results are described as quotients (M= 100, SD = 15), age equivalents, or percentiles.
