The validity of the PEDS ranges from 0.84–0.99 when compared with later deficits and diagnoses [52]. The PEDS:DM is a new measure that can be used with the PEDS or by itself. The PEDS:DM comprises six to eight items per age and aims to predict the developmental status of children accurately.

All questions are asked at all ages (PEDS has been validated for use with parents of children aged from birth through 7 years and 11 months). Language is important—the words of the PEDS questionnaire have been chosen because research has shown that parents respond well to them.

So, it provides clear criteria for when to refer and meets standards for screening test accuracy. The PEDS:DM® is for children birth to 8 years (7 years-11 months) of age. Items are completed by parent report (but can also be administered directly to children).

The questions in the PEDS elicit parents' perspectives of their child's development as high/medium/low risk.
