“…The US norms of the Bayley-III were constructed adding a special group of 10% children with a developmental problem to the normative sample [8], whereas the German norms of the Bayley-III [10] as well as the BSID-II [6] excluded children with developmental problems. The Dutch norms [9] included some high-risk children but in a much lower proportion than the US norms.…”

The Impact of Norms on the Outcome of Children Born Very-Preterm when Using the Bayley-III: Differences between US and German Norms

et al. 2019

Background: The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, third edition (Bayley-III) are widely used to assess the development of children born preterm. However, it is still unclear whether US norms are adequate for use in other populations. In 2014, the German version of the Bayley-III with German norms was published. Objectives: We aimed to compare the performance of very-preterm infants at one, two, and three years of age using the German versus US norms of the Bayley-III. Methods: All children born prior to 32 weeks of gestational age during 2012 and 2015 and taking part in the follow-up program of the Medical University of Vienna were assessed and scored according to both German and US norms by two expert clinical psychologists at the age of one, two, and three years of age. Results: In total, 843 tests were obtained from 450 children. When looking at scaled scores for cognitive, language, and motor outcomes, preterm children achieved significantly lower scores in nearly all subtests with the German as compared to the US norms. In addition, the proportion of impaired children scoring < 1 standard deviation (SD) and < 2 SD below the norm was significantly higher in nearly all subtests when using the German compared to the US norms (p < 0.05). Conclusions: Applying German and US norms of the Bayley-III leads to different outcomes in very-preterm children, and these differences are statistically significant and clinically relevant. Thus, comparisons of outcomes of very-preterm children using culturally specific norms are problematic, and these findings have to be considered.

“…Of the individuals with IQ data, 51.2% were tested with different German versions of the Wechsler Scales (HAWIK-IV/WISC-IV, Petermann and Petermann 2007 ; WPPSI-III, Petermann and Lipsius 2009 ; WAIS-III/WIE, Aster et al 2006 ; HAWIK-III/WISC-III, Tewes et al 1999 ). 42.1% were tested with nonverbal tests (Culture Fair Intelligence Test, Weiß 2006 ; Snijders–Oomen nonverbal Intelligence Test 2½–7, Tellegen et al 2007 ; Standard Progressive Matrices, SPM, Raven 2009 ; Coloured Progressive Matrices, CPM, Raven et al 2001 ) and 6.7% were tested with other tests (Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Dunn and Dunn 2007 ; K-ABC, Melchers and Preuß 2009 ; Bayley Scales-II, Reuner et al 2008 ). To achieve a comparable measurement to IQ for toddlers, the Developmental Quotient (DQ) was used and calculated as follows: DQ = developmental age/chronological age × 100.…”

The aim of the present study was to establish diagnostic validity of the new algorithm of the Autism Diagnostic Observation Scale, the ADOS-2, to differentiate between ASD and other clinically relevant psychiatric and developmental disorders in a large German sample. Validity of ADOS and ADOS-2 diagnostic algorithms was established in 826 individuals ( n = 455 autism, n = 216 autism spectrum, n = 155 non-ASD patients) by receiver operating curves. Confidence intervals overlapped largely for ADOS and ADOS-2 algorithms, confirming diagnostic validity of both algorithms. Adding information of the Social Communication Questionnaire and the Social Responsiveness Scale resulted in slightly improved classification rates for autism in Module 4. We thus replicated previous findings of the diagnostic validity of the ADOS-2 algorithms.

“…The mothers are asked to fill in the ADS Scale (Allgemeine Depressionsskala, Hautzinger and Bailer 2002 ) with the help of the project staff. The cognitive and motor development of the children are assessed by trained psychologists at age 2 (t4) using the German version of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development II (Reuner et al 2007 ). Furthermore, the emotional quality of mother-child interaction is assessed at four different times of measurement (t2, t3, t4 and t5).…”

FIRST STEPS – a randomized controlled trial on the evaluation of the implementation and effectiveness of two early prevention programs for promoting the social integration and a healthy development of children with an immigrant background from 0–3

et al. 2015

BackgroundThe social integration of children with an immigrant background has become one of the most urgent social responsibilities in Germany. They are more likely to live in high-risk environments and are disadvantaged with respect to health related variables as well as educationally. Quite a number of projects supporting their integration into the German society exist although many are hardly scientifically evaluated. Most of them focus on the acquisition of German language and therefore address older children (and adults). However, international experts agree that social integration is not only a matter of language but also of earlier developmental processes of children in their first months of life connected to adequate early parenting.Methods/DesignThe model project FIRST STEPS focuses on earliest prevention for children with an immigrant background, supporting their parents in the critical phase of migration and early parenthood. In a prospective randomized comparison group design the effectiveness of a psychoanalytically oriented early prevention program (intervention A) is compared to the outcomes of groups offered by paraprofessionals with an immigrant background (intervention B). Intervention A is a professional offer supporting immigrant families based on developmental psychological and on knowledge on early parenting. 180 families are randomly assigned to intervention A or B. They are supported during the first 3 years of the children’s lives. Social and family stressors, the quality of the parent–child-interaction, child attachment security, the affective, cognitive and social-emotional development of the children and the social integration of the families are assessed during and after the intervention.DiscussionThe project aims at evaluating the implementation as well as the short- and long-term effectiveness of psychoanalytically oriented intervention A compared to the outcomes of intervention B. It is expected that professionally supported early parenting (intervention A) improves the social-emotional, cognitive and language development of immigrant children as well as the social integration of their families to a greater extent than in the comparison groups. In case the model project proves to be effective, a rollout across Germany is possible. Due to the “difficult-to-reach” immigrant families challenges in recruitment, uptake and retention of participants are anticipated.Trial registrationDRKS-ID: DRKS00004632, trial registration date: 05.02.2013
