Judgment-Based Assessment: Making the Implicit Explicit.
LeLaurin, Kathryn
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v10 n3 p96-110 Fall 1990
This article (1) defines areas in infant and preschool evaluation where clinical judgment is typically used; (2) argues that judgment-based assessments are only as good as the objectivity, reliability, and validity of its data collection and use; and (3) offers examples of procedures and clinical methods to increase diagnostic accuracy.
