This CD-Rom is compatible with Windows 2003 and may not work on later systems  The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) Self-Instructional Training CD-ROMs are designed to enable practitioners to train independently as reliable users of the printed Gross Motor Function Measure. They include details of the administration and scoring of all 88 items in the GMFM, as well as several video examples for each. Examples have been chosen to reflect a variety of scores and to highlight significant training principles. This CD-ROM set will be of interest to professionals using the GMFM for clinical or research purposes who want to gain a better understanding of the main testing, scoring and interpretation issues. The two CDs will take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours to explore, depending on the user's purposes. The value of the system is the ability of the user to work through the program at their own pace and to return as needed to items previously viewed.

The Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM) has become the best evaluative measure of motor function designed for quantifying change in the gross motor abilities of children with cerebral palsy. The new version of the scoring programme has now been released, and includes two abbreviated methods of estimating GMFM-66 scores using the GMFM-66-Item sets and the GMFM-66-Basal &amp; Ceiling. The measure is very widely used internationally, and is now the standard outcome assessment tool. This new edition builds on the wide success of the first edition and: <ul>

Product Description 
The third edition of the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM-66 & GMFM-88) User’s Manual has retained the information contained in the original 2002 and 2013 publications which included the conceptual background to the development of the GMFM, and the administration and scoring guidelines for people to be able to administer this clinical and research assessment tool appropriately. This includes information on the development and validation of two abbreviated methods of estimating GMFM-66 scores using the GMFM-66- Item sets (GMFM-66- IS) and the GMFM-66- B&C (Basal & Ceiling) and a chapter providing a longitudinal case illustration of how the measure and the short forms of the GMFM can be applied and interpreted in clinical practice. 
The new edition includes information and an Appendix on the updated version of the Gross Motor Ability Estimator scoring program (GMAE-3), which is available through the GMFM App+ (see the CanChild website at (https://www.canchild.ca/en/shop/38-the-gross-motor-function-measure-app).
