Hi folks,

DD is only 3 (almost 4) and we have no plans to test her at this stage, but I was wondering how testers take age into account when testing young children. E.g., there's a big different between 4 and 1 month, 4 and 6 months, 4 and 11 months, but all these kids are still 4yo. Do they work that into the equation? They must, right?

Cheers, Luce

Im not an expert but I think the tests are normed for every 3 months.

Cool. Thanks frannieandejsmom

That is correct. And if you have a premature birth, one is supposed to use the adjusted age (based on gestational age) up until age 3.

Thanks aeh!

Our neuropsych said the test she used has a narrow range of comparison - w/in 3 mos.
