Abstract
SUMMARYThis article offers information about 12 schedules used to assess children who are profoundly handicapped. The comparison of schedules is intended to highlight their similarities and their differences, and to help determine the choice of schedule(s) for use in assessment and programme planning. It is considered that no single assessment instrument possesses all the characteristics to measure every aspect of development adequately. If this viewpoint is accepted, it is important to choose schedules which are complementary to each other, rather than ones which assess the same behaviours under the guise of differences in vocabulary.
