A method of developmental assessment at four years and some associated findings.
A method of assessing the developmental status of 4-year-old children, which can be included in a comprehensive medical examination, is described. It was designed for research purposes, so that a global score, and separate scores for each sector of development, are obtained. Girls, children in the upper social classes, and those who attended nursery school had higher scores, in general, at this age. The importance of assessing and investigating the factors associated with lack of cooperation is stressed.
