Establishing performance standards for child development: learnings from the ECDI2030

CONCLUSIONS: This paper demonstrated how the standard setting methodology, typically applied to measures in the health and education fields, could be applied to a measure of child development. By creating robust criterion-referenced standards, we have been able to ensure that the cut-scores related to age for the ECDI2030 are based on performance standards set by global experts in the ECD field for defining on and off track development.PMID:38087377 | PMC:PMC10717755 | DOI:10.1186/s41043-023-00483-2
