          Abstract

          Introduction: Less than five years old child is gold time for a child for acquiring excellent skills such as perception, interaction, speech, etc., and therefore, the development of screening in this age to identify developmental problems in children early and provide treatment. To this order, the study intended to assess the development of children with a questionnaire ASQ in kids below five 5 year old in rural areas in Isfahan in 2012-2013.

          Materials and Methods: A descriptive study was conducted on 1900 children under five years old, by separating year, one to two years, and 2 to 5 years in rural areas of Isfahan. The research sample included all children less than five years old were visited health coverage for care. Exclusion criteria for selecting children less than five years was birth defects, such as heart disease, kidney disease. The sampling method was an interview with the mother standardized questionnaire the World Health Organization and the Ministry were used to collect data by in the field of evolutionary 5 (Gross and fine motor, issue solving and interaction, personalization and social). There are six questions in per area, and if yes score 10 and sometimes score 5 and if it still does not do the activity score is zero. The questionnaire delivered to the mother and then returned to where it was necessary to complete the application in question and data was analyzed SPSS21.

          Findings: Findings indicated that the average age of moms via a mean age of 5.5 ± 28.8 of children 1.4 ± 22 months. 95% of mothers were homemakers, and 33.1 percent had primary education. Regarding the evolution of the most challenging year in the development of gross motor 4.5 and then the solution was 3.7. In group most difficult one to two years of growth in gross motor and fine to the amount of 4.5 to 3.7 after the problem was and in 2 to 5 years in most areas of fine motor problem solving with 7.2 and then 2.8, respectively.

          Discussion: According to the findings shown first on gross motor developmental problems at an early age is the greatest and whatever increasing age of the more advanced developmental problems such as fine motor goes. On the other hand, problem solving in children less than one year of age accounted for the highest frequency, which indicates that both service providers and parents In the field of education are not necessary. It should consider the policy of this country and as mothers walking, talking, etc. to teach children skills such as problem solving in the field of education to teach children.

          Support for the global feasibility of the Ages and Stages Questionnaire as developmental screener.

          To investigate the psychometric properties of the Dutch version of the 48 months Ages and Stages Questionnaire (D_ASQ_48). Prospective cohort study of a community-based sample of children born in 2002 and 2003 whose parents filled out the D_ASQ_48 and a questionnaire on school status at 60 months. The ASQ was translated into Dutch and back-translated into English by three independent translators. Well Child Centers covering 25% of the Netherlands. Parents of 1510 preterm and 562 term children born in 2002-2003 attending routine Well Child visits at age 45-50 months. Reliability, validity and mean population scores for D_ASQ_48 compared to other countries. Mean population scores for the D_ASQ_48 were mostly similar to those in the USA, Norway and Korea. Exceptions (effect sizes of difference >0.5) were problem solving (USA) and fine motor (Korea). Reliability was good for the total score (Cronbach alpha 0.79) and acceptable for all domains (0.61-0.74). As expected, infants born at gestational age <32 weeks, children from low income families, of low educated mothers, and boys were more likely to fail on several domains (odds ratios, OR ranging from 1.5 to 4.9). The only unexpected association concerned children from one-parent families. Sensitivity to predict special education at five years of age was 89% and specificity 80%. The good psychometric properties of the Dutch ASQ_48 and the small differences when compared to other countries support its usefulness in the early detection of developmental problems amongst children worldwide.
