Area of Science:

Developmental Psychology
Pediatric Assessment
Language Acquisition

Background:

The Capute Scales are a 100-item tool for assessing infant development.
It measures expressive/receptive language and nonverbal problem-solving skills.
Target age range is birth to 3 years.

Purpose of the Study:

To standardize the Capute Scales on a large, diverse population.
To generate normative data for the instrument's clinical utility.
To validate the assessment's predictive accuracy and scoring methods.

Main Methods:

A multisite study involving 1055 typically developing children.
Data collection balanced for age, sex, and race.
Analysis of item and total score performance relative to age.

Main Results:

No significant performance differences were observed based on race or sex.
Age levels assigned to test items accurately predicted achieved age levels.
Developmental quotients derived from age ratios proved reliable, negating the need for standard score conversion.

Conclusions:

The Capute Scales are a valid and reliable developmental assessment tool for infants.
Normative data support its utility across diverse demographic groups.
The scoring method using developmental quotients is effective and efficient.
