Module 6

Scoring and Interpretation

~24 min · 8 slides

Presenter cues

  • Read the shape before the numbers — say it, then show it on the profile chart.
  • Composite is a summary. Interpretation lives in the domain spread and the observation notes.
  • Every recommendation must trace to a recorded score or observation; ask the room to find the trace on your sample report.

Answer key

Domain average is Level 3, but the three skills are 5, 3, and 1. How do you report it?
Do not report the average as the finding. Report the spread: the domain is unstable, with one skill at floor. The Level 1 skill drives the plan; the average would have hidden it. This is why spread is read before composite.
What may the report not say?
No binocular vision diagnosis, no naming or implying a specific ocular condition, no lens/prism/vision-therapy recommendation, and no claim that is not traceable to recorded data. Symptom reports go in as quotes, attributed to the student.
