 Answer: FALSE

HOW TO SCORE:
15. Tally the number of check marks ()
in each domain and record all this in the
section labeled “Total Score”. The check
marks () that you tallied in each
domain are the raw scores.
 TRUE OR FALSE?
HOW TO SCORE:
16. Transfer the raw score for each
domain in the table. Using the Scaled
Score Equivalent of Raw Scores Table,
convert the raw scores to scaled
scores appropriate to the age of the
child. A
 Answer: FALSE
HOW TO SCORE:
16. Transfer the raw score for each domain in the
table. Using the Scaled Score Equivalent of Raw
Scores Table, convert the raw scores to scaled
scores appropriate to the age of the child.

To arrive at the sum of scaled scores, add the scaled scores across
all domains. To derive the standard score, refer to the Standard
Score Equivalent of Sums of Scaled Scores Table. Write the date for
each test administration.
