PSYC 720 - Infant Assessment

[3]

An in-depth examination of the theoretical and applied issues relating to assessing children up to age three, with specific focus on assessments of intellectual development, socio-emotional development, adaptive behavior and family functioning. Although the course is tailored for developmental psychologists in applied arenas, the approach taken is inter-disciplinary, with discussions included on how specific norm- and criterion-referenced assessments have been used to intervene with high-risk and developmentally delayed infants.
Prerequisite: Prerequisites: PSYC 651 and PSYC 781 or consent of instructor.
Note: It is expected that students enrolling in PSYC 720 also will enroll in PSYC 691.
