Klappentext

A concise and practical reference to techniques and issues in the assessment of children ages 0-5 years
Early childhood assessment is important for appropriately guiding intervention and supporting wellbeing in young children. Essentials of Assessing Infants, Toddlers, and Preschoolers covers the concepts and practices that professionals need to know in order to perform effective assessments and help translate them into targeted interventions.
Inside, readers will learn how assessing young children differs from assessing other populations. Considerations for assessment of culturally and linguistically diverse children are also included. The authors consider the impact of recent legislation, including new programs available under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). This book also covers the available assessments for various developmental domains and special populations.
As with all volumes in the popular Essentials of Psychological Assessment Series, this book contains visual cues that highlight key points, along with step-by-step guidelines that make this an immediately useful resource. Theory and research are woven into the material, but always with an eye toward practical application. Beginning and seasoned practitioners, as well as those supervising students, will find value in this comprehensive guide to early childhood assessment.
