Gross Motor Function Measure (Gmfm-66 and Gmfm-88) User's Manual [With CDROM]

By Lisa M. Avery, Peter L. Rosenbaum, Marilyn Wright, et al.

Book Overview

The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) is the first evaluative measure of motor function designed for quantifying change in the gross motor abilities of children with cerebral palsy. The new version (GMFM-66) of this widely used and now standard outcome assessment tool is completely revised, largely new, and has been improved through Rasch analysis. GMFM-66 transforms the standard GMFM into an interval measure; provides an 'item map' of the relative difficulty among items; and includes a user-friendly, computer-assisted software program to aid in scoring and interpretation of GMFM data. This is included, with a printed scoresheet, on a CD-ROM enclosed in the book.
