INTRODUCTION

Hello. Thank you for agreeing to talk with us again. As I mentioned (on the phone/when we made the appointment), the entire visit will take about 2½ hours. The visit has three parts. (Just as we did last time.) I will need to spend about a half hour with (CHILD), letting (him/her) show me some of the things (he/she) has been learning. Next, I will take out different toys for (CHILD) to play with while I videotape you and (him/her) together. While you, (CHILD) and I are working together, it would be best if we were not interrupted. Finally, I will be asking you some questions about (CHILD) and your family routines. (Many of these questions are the same or similar to questions we asked you when [CHILD] was 14 months old.) As we go along, I will be telling you what we need you to do. And please, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them!

If at any time you need to take a break to take care of (CHILD) (or your other children), please let me know.

All the information you give me is confidential. Neither your name nor (CHILD)’s will be attached to any of the information you give us. If there is ever anything you are not comfortable talking about or doing, please let me know and we will skip that part.

Is this a good time for (CHILD)? We can start with (his/her) activities or with the interview if you think (he/she) isn’t at (his/her) best right now.

IS THIS A GOOD TIME FOR CHILD?

YES	01		GO TO SECTION 0
NO	00		START INTERVIEW, RETURN TO SECTION 0 WHEN CHILD IS READY

INTERVIEWER: WHEN ARE YOU DOING THE BAYLEY?

AT START OF VISIT	01
AFTER START OF QUESTIONNAIRE	00		Which section?

WHEN YOU DO THE BAYLEY OR AT ANY TIME WHEN THE CHILD IS PRESENT, PRAISE (HIM/HER) AND NOTE PARENT’S REACTION.

YOU WILL CODE PARENT’S REACTION IN QUESTION 9.12.

INTRODUCTION TO THE BAYLEY:

0.1

Now I would like to give (CHILD) a chance to show us some of the skills (he/she) has been learning. These activities are designed to be fun for children and we think (he/she) will enjoy most of them.

I will need a few minutes to get my materials set up. Would you please see if (CHILD) needs anything such as (changing/a bathroom break) or a snack so that (he/she) will be comfortable. (Also, we need to make sure that the other children let (CHILD) do these tasks by (him/her)self).

0.2

All the toys we will use are non-toxic, clean and safe, and have been thoroughly washed. We don’t expect (CHILD) to be able to do all the tasks. They are designed for a wide range of children. Please don’t try and help (him/her) out.

WHEN YOU DO THE BAYLEY, IF POSSIBLE, HAVE THE PARENT COMPLETE THE SELF ADMINISTERED QUESTIONNAIRE 1. [QUESTIONS 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 7.1, 11.1 AND 12.1.] DO NOT GIVE SAQ2 (MacARTHUR , SECTION 10) NOW.

PROCEED WITH BAYLEY BOOKLET.
