Traditional assessment measures can miss critical temperament and
self-regulation problems that may indicate a child's risk for
atypical development. Now there's TABS -- a new, norm-referenced
screening and assessment tool for infants and young children ages
11-17 months. TABS is specifically designed to identify temperament
and self-regulation behavioral indicators as early as possible by
surveying key behavioral areas, including temperament, attention
and activity, attachment and social behavior, neurobehavioral
state, sleeping, play, vocal and oral behavior, senses and
movement, and self-stimulatory behavior.
TABS has been normed on nearly 1,000 young children from diverse
socioeconomic and ethnic backgrounds developing typically and
atypically. TABS normative research provides clinical validity for
the regulatory disorder axis of the Diagnostic Classification
System: 0-3, published by Zero to three: National Center for
Infants, Toddlers and Families. With TABS, professionals will be
able to determine eligibility for early intervention and mental
health behavioral support services because TABS scores coincide
with state eligibility criteria for early intervention services and
with mental health criteria for DSM-IV diagnoses. Use TABS today
for Child Find, screening, determining eligibility for special
services, planning education and intervention (e.g., IEPs, IFSPs,
and wraparound mental health behavioral support plans), monitoring
child progress and program effectiveness, and conducting applied
research.
The manual provides all of the necessary information for the
administration and scoring of TABS, plus relevant reliability and
validity data, including normative means, standarddeviations, and
cut-off scores for both typical and atypical samples. A handy
intervention guide offers item-by-item strategies for minimizing
problematic, atypical behavior.
