BACKGROUND There is a wide range of early developmental assessment or screening instructions. Standardized, reliable assessment instruments (e.g. Mullen Scales of Early Learning, Brigance Inventory of Early Development, Battelle Developmental Inventory, etc.) allow for direct evaluation of infant/child behaviors but they are time intensive, expensive to purchase, require highly trained personnel for administration, scoring, and interpreting, and often rely on outdated norms. SCOPE There is a wide range of early developmental assessment or screening instruments. Standardized, reliable assessment instruments (e.g., Mullen Scales of Early Learning, Brigance Inventory of Early Development, Battelle Developmental Inventory, etc.) allow for direct evaluation of infant/child behaviors but they are time intensive, expensive to purchase, require highly trained personnel for administration, scoring, and interpreting, and often rely on outdated norms. The purpose of the NIH Infant and Toddler Toolbox (aka the “NIH Baby Toolbox” [NBT]) is to develop and nationally norm an easy to administer, score, and interpret infant and toddler assessment inventory of cognition, social functioning, language (receptive and expressive), numeracy, self-regulation and executive function for research and clinical use in children between 1- to 42-months of age that will include direct child assessment (preferred measurement), supplemented as needed by parental/ legal guardian report. Toward these goals, the purpose of this task order is to identify and establish the requisite resources that will be needed to support and build the NIH Infant and Toddler Toolbox (NBT), including resources needed to provide infrastructure and support for study conduct, data acquisition, quality and monitoring, and delivery of prototype products. Major responsibilities include identifying and selecting scientific and statistical experts for consultation, and appropriate measures and hardware to be implemented by the NBT. Also required are data quality and integrity testing and assurances, producing thorough data documentation, cleaning and verifying of data, supporting administrative and regulatory requirements, and selecting and securing NBT piloting field sites.

背景 有多种早期发育评估或筛查说明（例如 Mullen 早期学习量表、Brigance 早期发育量表、Battelle 发育量表等）可以直接评估婴儿/儿童的行为，但它们并不适用。时间密集、购买成本昂贵、需要训练有素的人员进行管理、评分和口译，并且通常依赖于过时的规范。 范围 有多种早期发育评估或筛查工具（例如 Mullen 早期学习量表、Brigance 早期发育量表、Battelle 发育量表等）可以直接评估婴儿/儿童的行为，但NIH 婴幼儿工具箱（又名“NIH 婴儿工具箱”）的用途非常耗时，购买成本高昂，需要训练有素的人员进行管理、评分和解释，并且经常依赖过时的规范。 [NBT]）旨在开发并在全国范围内规范一个易于管理、评分和解释的婴幼儿认知、社会功能、语言（接受和表达）、计算能力、自我调节和执行功能评估清单，以供研究和临床使用针对 1 至 42 个月大的儿童，其中包括直接儿童评估（首选测量），并根据需要由父母/法定监护人报告进行补充。为了实现这些目标，本任务单的目的是确定和建立必要的资源。那将需要支持和建立 NIH 婴幼儿工具箱（NBT），包括为研究实施、数据采集、质量和监测以及原型产品的交付提供基础设施和支持所需的资源。还需要统计专家进行咨询，以及 NBT 实施的适当措施和硬件，包括数据质量和完整性测试和保证、生成全面的数据文档、数据清理和验证、支持管理和监管要求以及选择和保护 NBT。试点现场。
