The Developmental Profile 4 (DP-4) is designed to assess the development and functioning of individuals from birth through age 21 years, 11 months. The DP-4 is administered as a direct interview of a parent or caregiver, as a checklist completed by a parent/caregiver or teacher, or as a rating form completed by the clinician. This allows for evaluation of a child’s development across both home and school settings, and from the perspectives of different respondents. Each of the four DP-4 forms measures the following five areas of development: Physical, Adaptive Behavior, Social–Emotional, Cognitive, and Communication.

The DAYC-2 is used to identify children birth through 5-11 with possible delays in the following domains: cognition, communication, social-emotional development, physical development, and adaptive behavior. The domains can be assessed independently, so examiners may test only the domains that interest them or test all five domains when a measure of general development is desired. The DAYC-2 format allows examiners to obtain information about a child's abilities through observation, interview of caregivers, and direct assessment.

In this 3 hour workshop, participants will learn the key features of administration and scoring the DP-4 and DAYC-2.
