title: [Development and standardisation of the social-pediatric screening SOPESS].
abstract: This paper offers insight into the development and the standardisation of the social-pediatric screening, SOPESS. The screening was developed for assessing children's developmental stages in the context of the health examination for school entry in North Rhine Westphalia. As the cutoff date regarding age, time of school entry has been rendered flexible, health examinations are due up to six months earlier than before. The screening's theoretical basis is described, its development and standardisation are presented, and its psychometric properties reported.
