In clinical and educational settings, understanding early developmental readiness can inform support planning for young children. The Child Personal Maturity Scale is a brief measure intended to support screening of personal maturity and adaptive functioning in early childhood.
The instrument includes 13 items and typically requires about 3 minutes to complete. Items may be completed via caregiver/clinician report and/or structured observation, with results used to summarize a child’s current level of developmental readiness across core self-regulatory and interpersonal domains. Authors: Erik H. Erikson; Lawrence Kohlberg.
The Child Personal Maturity Scale is intended to provide a concise profile that can be integrated with interview findings, behavioral observations, and other standardized measures. Scores should be interpreted within the context of the child’s age, developmental history, language and cultural background, and the purpose of evaluation, and are not sufficient on their own for diagnosis.
