[Problems with developmental diagnostic procedures]
Abstract
After mentioning historical origins of developmental diagnostics, the present article focuses on some of the problems attached to procedures used in developmental diagnostics, as for example the Denver Scales well known and widely distributed in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Münchener Funktionelle Entwicklungsdiagnostik (Munich Functional Developmental Diagnostics), and the Federal Early Diagnostic Program for early discovery of developmental disorders. From this, criteria for the construction and evaluation of developmental tests are derived.
