The primary norm-referenced scores for the subdomains are v-scale scores, which have a mean of 15 and standard deviation (SD) of 3. Adaptive behavior subdomains make up the most fine-grained score level. The older the child was at diagnosis, the lowerWhich table is used to look up the domain standard scores, confidence intervals, and percentile ranks corresponding with the standard scores Table B.3.Ever wish you could copy the beautiful graphs generated by the BASC, Vineland, or ABAS computer scoring applications and insert them into your reports?The Vineland-3 Comprehensive Interview Form provides norm-referenced scores at three levels: subdomains, domains, and the overall Adaptive Behavior Composite (ABC). When Vineland-II ABC and communication scores were used to predict nonverbal IQ, the age at diagnosis was a significant variable (Table 3-4). The results showed that the higher the social impairment of a child, the lower the nonverbal IQ. Score contributed consistently to nonverbal IQ (Tables 3-6).

You cannot copy the graphs from a PDF reader built into a web browser. Most applications will have an option that says “Save”, “Save As”, or “Export”.You must use a desktop application, like Adobe Reader to open the report. Step 1: Save Report as PDF and Open in Adobe ReaderEach computer scoring application has a different way of doing this. How to Insert Graphs into Your ReportsFor this tutorial I will be using a sample BASC-3 report, but these steps will work with any computer scored assessment that you can save as a PDF.You can watch the video tutorial above or follow the steps below. These tables are tedious, time-consuming, and aren’t very parent friendly.Fortunately, there’s a better and less time-consuming way to display the results. It includes way more information than is necessary and is confusing to non-clinicians.We create a lengthy table and transfer the T-scores and percentiles from the computer generated report into our own.
It will also save you from inputting all those T-scores into a table!Do you use another way to graphically display assessment results in your reports? We’d love to hear about it!

Right click and paste into your desired location.Using these steps will make your evaluation reports friendlier to parents and non-clinicians. Adobe Reader will tell you that the area was copied.I like to start at the lower left corner and highlight as close to the graph elements as possible to minimize the white space and make the graph image as large as possible.Go into your word processor where you are writing your report. Maximizing the Adoble Reader window will create a higher resolution copy of the graph.From the top menu in Adobe Reader go to Edit –> Take a Snapshot.Click and drag over the graph area to highlight the entire graph and let go of the mouse button.
