Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development – Third Edition (Bayley-III)

Overview
The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development – Third Edition (Bayley-III; Bayley, 2005) may be used to identify
developmental delays, chart a child’s progress, and teach parents about the child’s development. The test is designed to be
used with children ages 1 to 42 months. It consists of five scales: Cognitive, Language (Receptive and Expressive), Motor (Fine
and Gross), Social-Emotional, and Adaptive Behavior (Conceptual, Social, and Practical). It also includes a test observations
measure to aid in intervention planning. This addition includes growth scores, index scores (standard scores), subtest scaled
scores, and percentiles. The Adaptive Behavior scale of the Bayley-III was adapted from the Parent/Primary Caregiver form of
the Adaptive Behavior Assessment System – Second Edition (ABAS-II; Harrison & Oakland, 2003).
