A Comparison of Perceived and Observed Developmental Stages among Children in the Age Range of 0–6 Years
Abstract
This study aims to compare the developmental levels of children in the age range of 0–6 years as perceived by their mothers and observed by a child development specialist. The sample of the study consists of 201 children (102 girls and 99 boys),who were 0–6 years old at the time of the study, and their mothers who were registered in two Family Health Centers in the district of Nilüfer in Bursa, Turkey. The Ankara Developmental Screening Inventory (ADSI) was used to reveal the developmental levels of the children as perceived by their mothers, and the Denver II Developmental Screening Test was used to detect their observation-based developmental levels. Based on the results of the ADSI, the developmental levels were non-normal in 19.4 percent of the children, and based on the results of Denver II, they were non-normal in 22.4 percent of the children. An analysis of the shared results of both developmental tests revealed that 8 percent of the children showed non-normal development and that fine motor development and social skills–self-care/personal–social development were not consistent. Literature in the area is reviewed and discussed in relation to the results of the present study. Recommendations are made for relevant authorities, organizations, and institutions.
