Supplemental Digital Content is Available in the Text. The International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) offers a universal language of codes to document childhood functioning. The ICF-CY Code Set for Infants with Early Delay and Disabilities (EDD Code Set) has been developed to facilitate the practical application of the ICF for children. The purpose of this study was to examine the utility of the EDD Code Set by exploring the linkage between ICF and children's assessment reports. We reviewed 30 Comprehensive Assessment Reports (CAR) for children with developmental delay (DD), aged 9–34 months in a joint evaluation center. Meaningful concepts in compulsory and supplementary sections of the CAR were identified and linked to the EDD Code Set. Linkage was measured by (a) number of linked codes and (b) average of code-only and code-with-qualifier percentages. Content in the CAR was linked to 72 of the 82 EDD codes with more codes linked from the supplementary (71) than the compulsory section (58). The largest proportion of linked codes was activities and participation (85%). The EDD Code Set can be used to examine the ICF linkage of pediatric assessment reports and guide future development or revision of pediatric documentation and participation-based intervention.

A multiple-probe design across participants was used to investigate the effect of a peer-mediated intervention on the turn-taking behavior of 3 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) attending inclusive childcare centers. An educator trained peers to support the child with a disability to take turns playing a game on an iPad. The educator was also available to provide coaching for the peer when needed. An intervention effect was demonstrated for each of the children, and 2 were able to demonstrate maintenance of the skill when the training and coaching procedures were not implemented by the educator. Although some elements of the treatment procedures were not consistently applied by the educators or typical peers, the intervention was sufficiently robust to enable the children with ASD to improve their turn-taking skills.

Family quality of life (FQoL) constitutes an important aspect of early intervention. However, the culture bound nature of this construct necessitates validation of FQoL measures when being used in a culture different from the one in which they were developed. This study sought to understand the psychometric properties and construct validity of the Beach Center FQoL (BCFQoL) scale in Singapore. Data from 307 caregivers of children in an early intervention program were used. These caregivers completed the BCFQoL scale and external validity measures of family outcomes, psychological distress, and life situation. Confirmatory factor analysis and correlations were used to examine the factor structure and convergent and discriminant validity of the BCFQoL scale. Results indicated support for 5 FQoL dimensions and a higher-order FQoL factor. External convergent and discriminant validity, as well as internal statistical discriminant validity of the individual BCFQoL dimensions were supported. Despite evidence of internal statistical discriminant validity, there was little variation in the strength of the relationships between individual BCFQoL dimensions and the various external validity measures. Overall, the results of this study support the use of the BCFQoL scale as a valid measure of FQoL in Singapore.
家庭生活质量(FQoL)是早期干预的重要方面。然而，这种结构的文化约束性质需要在不同文化中使用FQoL测量时进行验证。本研究旨在了解新加坡Beach Center FQoL (BCFQoL)量表的心理测量特性和构建效度。数据来自307名儿童早期干预项目的照顾者。这些照顾者完成BCFQoL量表和家庭结局、心理困扰和生活状况的外部效度测量。采用验证性因子分析和相关分析对BCFQoL量表的因子结构、收敛效度和判别效度进行检验。结果支持5个FQoL维度和一个高阶FQoL因子。BCFQoL各维度的外部收敛效度和判别效度以及内部统计判别效度均得到支持。尽管存在内部统计判别效度的证据，但BCFQoL个体维度与各种外部效度测量之间的关系强度几乎没有变化。总体而言，本研究的结果支持在新加坡使用BCFQoL量表作为FQoL的有效测量。

Brief, clinically feasible instruments are needed to assess autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in toddlers and preschoolers so that children can access early evidence-based intervention. Study purposes were to (1) compare scores on the 30-item Checklist for Autism Spectrum Disorder (CASD) and 6-item CASD-Short Form (CASD-SF) for toddlers and preschoolers and older children with ASD to determine whether scores differed by age and (2) establish sensitivity and specificity for the CASD and CASD-SF for toddlers and preschoolers. Samples were 1,266 children with ASD 1–17 years of age, 97 toddlers and preschoolers with diagnoses other than ASD, and 65 typical toddlers and preschoolers. CASD and CASD-SF scores were somewhat higher for toddlers and preschoolers than for older children with ASD, indicating that young children were not at increased risk for being missed. All toddlers and preschoolers with ASD had CASD scores in the autism range, and 99.7% had CASD-SF scores in the autism range. CASD and CASD-SF scores correctly identified 100% and 96.9% of typical toddlers and preschoolers and 100% and 96.2% of toddlers and preschoolers with disorders other than ASD, respectively, as not having ASD. Results demonstrate high CASD and CASD-SF sensitivity and specificity for toddlers and preschoolers.

The demographic composition in the United States has undergone shifts due to increasing immigration. This may change the way we think about families and children in the United States, and it is important to include immigrant families in parenting research. This study examined the relations between parent–child relationships and preschool-aged children's social-emotional functioning in the context of low-income families in the United States. We also explored how the relations between the two were moderated by parental nativity, specifically focusing on parents born in the United States and those who were born in Mexico and emigrated to the United States. The sample included 199 preschool children enrolled in Educare/Head Start programs and their parents, with 134 of the parents born in the United States and 65 born in Mexico. Parents reported parent–child closeness and conflict. Teachers reported children's social-emotional strengths and behavioral concerns. Assessors evaluated children's executive function and behavior regulation using structured tasks. The results showed that more parent–child conflict was related to more behavioral concerns and lower levels of executive function among children with U.S.-born parents but not among those with Mexico-born parents. The study suggests that the role of parenting in child social-emotional functioning may vary depending on cultural backgrounds among low-income families.

Having a child born prematurely can plunge parents into an unknown and sometimes frightening situation, where they experience a loss of control over events and reduced decision making capacity. Preterm birth sometimes results in post-traumatic stress disorder for parents and negatively impacts on parent-child interactional patterns, especially if parents were unprepared for this eventuality. The role of information, support and early intervention in parents’ coping capacity in this situation has been noted in developmental systems theory to contribute to family interactional patterns. This paper reports on a mixed-methods study that explored the information and support needed by and available to parents following pre-term birth in England and the effect of this on their emotional well-being. The findings suggest that support systems do not always provide timely or helpful emotional or practical support to parents and this has the potential to place additional stress on family interactional patterns, especially where parents were unprepared for the possibility of pre-term birth.
