| summary | The Intelligence and Development scales are a series of assessments developed children between five and ten years. The scales reach beyond the scope of traditional intelligence tests in that they include measures of six developmental domains, including psychomotor, cognition, socio-emotional competence, language, mathematics, and motivation. However, until now, a single battery that combines assessments of the traditional domains of intelligence, grounded solidly in the Cattell-Horn theory of intelligence discriminating between crystallized and fluid intelligence with such as wide range of additional factors (i.e., psychomotor, cognition, socio-emotional competence, language, mathematics, and motivation) has not been introduced, neither in Europe nor in the US. For this reason, it is expected that the IDS will add an important tool to the kits of school psychologists, neuropsychologists, and other professionals evaluating and diagnosing learning and developmental difficulties, including learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, and developmental delays in the areas of language, motor skills, and cognition.
The presentation will be structure in five parts, i.e., (i) embedding developmental processes during childhood in a life-span perspective, (ii) presenting a historic overview on intelligence and development assessment in Alfred Binet’s Tradition, (iii) introducing the functional dimensions of the IDS and the respective subscales, (iv) showing the results of the standardization (N=1330; 5;0-10;11 yrs) and validation studies with gifted children (n = 77), aggressive children (n = 75), children with learning disabilities (n = 25), ADHD children (n = 27) and Asperger children (n = 38), and finally (v) discussing developmental and intelligence profiles from an inter- and an intraindividual perspective. |
