PCI-Part 2 Teach Scales

Description

La Rabida Staff only.

PCI's Teaching Scale is appropriate for children from birth to 36 months and can be used as early as one day of age. Teaching scores from interactions with children as young as 3 months of age show a significant correlation with subsequent measures of children's cognitive abilities. The scale is widely used in both clinical practice and research with families and young children.

The Teaching Scales consists of 73 items organized into six subscales. Four subscales describe the parent's responsibility to the interaction: Sensitivity to Cues, Response to Distress, Social-Emotional Growth Fostering and Cognitive Growth Fostering, and two for the child: Clarity of Cues and Responsiveness to Caregiver. The Teaching Scale is scored following the observation of a session where the caregiver is asked to teach the child a defined age-appropriate activity. The length of administering the Teaching Scale varies but generally is completed in 1-6 minutes.
