چکیده
August 2015 Overview The Mullen Scales of Early Learning: AGS Edition (Mullen, 1995) is an individually administered, standardized measure of cognitive functioning designed to be used with children from birth through 68 months. This update is a revised version of the original Mullen Scales of Early Learning, combining the Infant MSEL with the Preschool MSEL. It consists of a GrossMotor Scale and four Cognitive Scales: Visual Reception, Fine-Motor, Receptive Language, and Expressive Language. The Gross-Motor Scale is for use with children ages birth through 33 months, whereas the Cognitive Scales are used with children ages birth to 68 months. T-scores (mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10) are given for individual scales, and an optional Early Learning Composite serves as an overall estimate of cognitive functioning. The Mullen Scales may be used for eligibility decisions as well as program planning.
