Age-Range: Children"The GMFM is a clinical measure designed to evaluate change in gross motor function in children with cerebral palsy. There are two versions of the GMFM: the original 88-item measure (GMFM-88) and the more recent 66-item GMFM (GMFM-66). Items on the GMFM-88 span the spectrum from activities in lying and rolling up to walking, running and jumping skills. The GMFM-66 is comprised of a subset of the 88 items that has been shown to be unidimensional." (From the link above)

Authors: Bricker, D., Squires J., Age-Range: Birth 5.0 years"Parents complete the simple, illustrated 30-item questionnaires at designated intervals, assessing children in their natural environments to ensure valid results.
