Key facts

Test of Infant Motor Performance Version 5.1
GENERAL DIRECTIONS 1. All observations and test procedures should be carried out when the infant is in state 3, 4 or 5 (as described in Brazelton, TBNeonatal Behavioral Assessment Scale. Philadelphia, JB Lippincott, 1984, pp. 17-19). An infant must have lusty crying for 15 seconds or more to be in state 6 and thus untestable for that item. 2. The infant should wear as little clothing as possible to avoid restriction of movement and to allow the body part under observation to be visible. At the same time, care must be taken to avoid thermal stress. 3. Testing should be performed on the crib mattress or other firm surface. Clear area of excess bedding. Begin with observation of spontaneous activity (Observed Items). After recording initial observations, continue to watch for and score presence of Observed Items throughout the remainder of the test. It may help to note Observed Items at the bottom of pages when noted during Elicited Item administration. 4. Unless otherwise stated, verbal and/or visual prompts may be used to elicit the best possible response from the infant. 5. No more than three trials are allowed for each elicited test item (Elicited Items) based on infant's response, state, and tolerance, but usually no more than one trial is needed so as to avoid unduly tiring the infant. Record the best response observed. 6. If the infant fails to meet the full criterion for a given response, score the behavior at the next lower response level for that item. 7. Midline is defined to include the arc which is 15 degrees to either side of midline when the head is in the upright position. 8. Pacifiers may be used to quiet infant but should not be used during the actual administration of test items. 9. If the testing is interrupted, items that remain can be completed in a 2nd session within 24 hours of the 1st.Caution: The TIMP must be used ONLY by persons with training and experience in safe handling of fragile infants.
