“…Both studies found that the object domain of the SED-S correlated the least with overall ED score. Consequently, further revisions of the SED-S may remove this domain completely, as it has been argued to link with cognitive development (object permanence) rather than emotional development (Sterkenburg et al , 2021).…”

“…It is noteworthy that children with ID and comorbid autism spectrum condition (ASC) have scored significantly lower on the SED-S than children with ID and no ASC diagnosis (Sterkenburg et al , 2021). This has also been shown in adults, where ED can be used to differentiate between participants with and without ASC within the ID population (Sappok et al , 2020).…”

“…In typically developing children (n = 160), the SED-S has shown excellent inter-rater reliability measured by Cohen's kappa (k = 0.95-1.00) and strong correlations between chronological age and the target age of the item (Sappok et al, 2019). Recent work with a sample of 118 children with ID supported both the internal validity of the SED-S (a = 0.94) and convergent validity, as ED scores correlated with scores of social adaptive behaviour and ID severity (Sterkenburg et al, 2021). ED scores were not correlated with chronological age within the ID sample, supporting the notion that ED is an independent construct to age.…”

Purpose Psychometrically sound measures are essential for clinical practice to provide appropriate therapeutic input. Vlissides et al. (2016) reviewed measures used in psychological therapies with people who have intellectual disabilities (ID). This paper aims to review the evidence for the psychometric properties of recent clinical measures published since/overlooked by Vlissides et al. (2016). Design/methodology/approach A literature search was conducted to identify relevant clinical measures. Experts in the field also were contacted. Twenty papers were identified, relating to five novel clinical measures: psychological therapies outcome scale – intellectual disabilities, clinical outcome in routine evaluation – learning disabilities scale 30, quality of early relatedness rating scale, scale of emotional development – short and the Frankish assessment of the impact of trauma. Findings Evidence was found supporting a proportion of the psychometric properties of each measure, and some measures were found to be useful in directing interventions and informing clinical decisions. None of the measures identified, however, are yet to be fully psychometrically investigated, requiring further research. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this paper is the first to review the evidence of psychometric properties for these five emerging clinical measures and as such contributes an original perspective on their current state and requirements for future development.

“…The level of ED can be assessed with the Scale of Emotional Development -Short (SED-S; Sappok et al 2016). Recent studies have indicated reliability and validity of the SED-S both in adults (Sappok et al 2019) and in children (Sappok et al 2019;Sterkenburg et al 2021). Attributing specific emotional needs and motivations, as well as coping and regulating strategies to the level of ED may support the analysis and diagnostic allocation of observed behaviour patterns (Došen 2005).…”

Background Challenging behaviours in people with an intellectual developmental disorder (IDD) are complex and often difficult to understand. The developmental perspective may provide additional insights into the specific behavioural patterns and underlying motives in different emotional reference ages. Methods The behaviours of 185 adults with IDD who were admitted to psychiatry were systematically assessed with the Aberrant Behaviour Checklist (ABC) and the Modified Overt Aggression Scale (MOAS). The association of the different behaviours with various emotional reference age groups as assessed with the Scale of Emotional Development -Short (SED-S) was analysed to deduce behavioural patterns typical for a certain level of functioning. Results Overall, the severity of challenging behaviours decreases in higher emotional reference age groups. Physical aggression was most prevalent in persons in the second phase of emotional development (7-18 months reference age). In SED-S-1 (reference age 0-6 months), the persons appeared to be searching for physical comfort and showed high scores in social withdrawal, stereotypies and aggression towards the self. Persons functioning in SED-S-2 (reference age 7-18 months) scored highest in irritability and physical aggression (searching for security), while those in SED-S-3 (19-36 months) exhibited the searching for autonomy type characterised by defiant and socially inappropriate behaviours. Persons with an emotional reference age of 4-7 years (SED-S-4) showed inappropriate speech, verbal self-regulation and depressive-like behavioural aspects (searching for identity). Conclusions The behavioural phenomena exhibited in a certain emotional reference age may support the clinician to differentiate behavioural problems from psychopathological symptoms to yield the proper diagnosis.
