What should I expect at a speech and developmental evaluation?

What can we expect from a pediatric psychological evaluation of our 7 year old?

  • What is involved in a pediatric physiological evaluation? I'm having my daugher screened, and her iQ tested. My neighbor recommended the one she used for her son, she said there would be 4 or 5 'sessions'. What can my daughter expect? What can we expect??

  • Answer:

    With our son He first took a series of tests for IQ, social skills, etc. They had me fill out papers about him. Many questionaires about family, sickness, behaviors, etc. Then it took a few weeks for them to get results. He also went into rooms without me and had behavioral specialist, autism specialist and learning disabilities specialists and then after he was tested and evaluated by each, they then had me come into a room with all of them to discuss what they thought. Honestly I went through lots of different things, and I cant remember it all. Jsut remember to be patient because it can take some of these people a while and you can end up with other types of appointments.

I'D LIKE AN ANSWER FOR THIS QUESTION ALSO. MY 14 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING.

they will do a clinical interview with you and your child, they will do a full battery of psychological tests (some depending on what they are testing for) they may do a clinical observation also. The reason why they do it in so many sessions is because its easier on the client to do several smaller sessions, than one long session.
