The Bayley-III is an individually-administered examination that assesses the current developmental functioning of infants and young children from birth to 42 months of age. The Bayley is a standardized, norm-referenced measure that assesses development in Cognitive, Language and Motor domains. Composite standard scores can be derived that have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15.
