The checklist and manual are designed to measure changes in parental skills as a result of both group and individualized programing in a home based prescriptive infant program. Guidelines are also given on setting behavioral goals for parents that can be addressed by program activities. The inventory is divided into seven skill areas: parental involvement with the program as a whole, home visits and prescriptions, teaching skills, encouraging language development, physical care, providing a secure and caring environment, and advocacy. Worksheets eliciting information on skill area, goal behavior, strategies, time, others involved, results, and reevaluation/further planning are also included. (CL)
