Description: The IDS-2 is a global cognitive assessment of the 'whole child', unparalleled in its ability to identify their knowledge, strengths, and developmental needs in one complete picture. The second edition of the highly successful German IDS, first published in 2009, the IDS-2 provides in-depth information on the child’s strengths and developmental needs, enabling testers to identify with precision where support is needed to help them achieve their full potential. The IDS-2 offers the most comprehensive diagnostic assessment available, with 30 subtests covering the six domains: two cognitive domains (Intelligence and Executive Functions) and four developmental domains (Psychomotor skills, Social-emotional skills, Scholastic skills, and Motivation and Attitude). Developed in a unique modular framework with child-friendly test materials, the IDS-2’s flexible design makes it easy to personalize the testing session. Booklets and record sheets are colour-coded for ease of use and scoring is conducted online for convenience and accuracy. The IDS-2 can be used across a variety of diverse applications, including identifying and diagnosing intellectual disabilities and learning disorders, evaluating cognitive and motor skills, and understanding emotional strengths and weaknesses. The IDS-2 is valuable in the education sector to determine aptitude, assist with school enrolment or transition between primary and secondary, providing meaningful results to pinpoint specific actions and interventions. The assessment measures: Intelligence – including IQ-Screening (2 tests), general intelligence (7 tests), and a complete IQ-Profile (14 tests) Executive Functions – including inhibition, working memory, and cognitive flexibility Psychomotor skills Social-emotional skills Scholastic skills – including mathematical reasoning, reading and spelling Motivation and Attitude (for ages 11 to 20 years) Kit includes: Theory and Administration Manuals Binders for Intelligence, Executive functions, and General Development Copies of each record form, test sheets and response booklets HTS online scoring credits Scoring templates, acetates and reading cards Box of nonverbal materials Kit case Scoring and reporting Scoring is done online through the Hogrefe Testsystem (HTS), eliminating errors and removing the need for manual scoring.
