EDI SUB-DOMAINS
• EDI domains are broken down
into sub-domains
• Based on the skills and abilities
within each sub-domain,
children’s scores were identified
as meeting the developmental
expectations by the following
categories:
All / Almost All
Some
Few / None
• Of particular interest are
children who are meeting Few
or None of the developmental
expectations.
• An investigation of the
proportion of children who fall
into the Few/None category will
identify areas of the greatest
weakness in the population.
