A brief evaluation to determine if a referral is appropriate
What is a screening?
100
The repeatability of a test to have similar scores on two separate administrations; about 1 to 2 weeks apart
What is test-retest reliability?
100
When we look at a referral issue where/when it naturally occurs is adhering to this most foundational principle of top-down evaluation and intervention.
What is providing services in context; natural environments?
100
Three of the five characteristic of S.M.A.R.T goals
What is Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-Limited?
100
In test measurement, the extent to which one construct is
correlated with other constructs considered to be
similar; i.e the Beery Test of Visual Motor Integration compared to the visual motor integration subtests of the Developmental Test of Visual Perception-3
What is convergent validity?
200
The broad term for tools administered to clients.
What is an assessment?
200
The extent to which a measurement tool measures what the authors intend it to measure.
What is validity?
200
Using a tool that measures visual perceptual capabilities first as a response to a referral for difficulties with reading or moving about the environment is an example of this
What is bottom-up assessment?
200
In a written goal, the skill or behavior in need of change
What is target behavior?
200
The range of adequate reliability
What is >/= .70 ?
300
One basic reason to evaluate
What is to determine eligibility for services; to determine intervention?
300
The amount that a client will deviate from the true score as a result of irrelevant or chance events, as well as sources of error in measurement; represents the reliability of individual scores
What is standard error of measurement (SEM)?
300
Method most often used in medical model of service provision
What is bottom-up?
300
In written goals, acceptable levels of performance of the target behavior
What is criteria?
300
In test measurement, the ability of a test to discriminate
between two groups of participants with known differences
What is discriminant validity?
400
A description of the client’s occupational history and experiences as described by the client; includes patterns of living, interests, values and needs relative to the occupational impacts that brought the client to you as a referral
What is an occupational profile?
400
The ability of two different people to score items consistently between two administrations
What is inter-rater reliability?
400
Main assessment "tool" used in top-down assessment?
What is ecological assessment/contextual observation?
400
In written goals, the circumstances under
which the target behavior will occur
What is condition(s)?
400
An assessment tool that measures the responses of the pediatric client with a cut-off score?
What is a criterion-referenced assessment tool?
500
One reason pediatric practitioners select specific assessment tools
What is To answer the referral issue(s)?
500
The ability of the instrument to forecast future behavior, abilities, performance
What is predictive validity?
500
Accommodations and modifications are as important as direct intervention in this approach
What is top-down approach?
500
In schools and early intervention practice, parents must approve goals in writing with signature. True or False
What is True?
500
An assessment tool that compares the scores for a pediatric client to normative sample with standard or scaled scores
