title: A study of the correlation between BSID-III and KICDT for children with developmental delay.
abstract: [Purpose] The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of the BSID-III through the comparison of results from the BSID-III and KICDT and analyzing the correlation for each item. [Subjects] The subjects of the study were 27 children diagnosed with delayed development who had visited a pediatric rehabilitation care facility between January 2012 and October 2013. They are younger than 42 months of age. Other children with a congenital lesion or other conditions revealed by brain CT or MRI were excluded. [Results] The cognitive and fine motor categories among the lower categories of the BSID-III demonstrated strong correlations with the lower categories of the KICDT; however, the social-emotional category did not show any correlation. As a result, the BSID-III may be a useful testing tool for screening or for identification of developmental stages in children with delayed development. [Conclusion] Studies with various groups and ages should be done in the future, and there should be the Korean standards for the BSID-III.
