These videotapes demonstrate the DIR model and how to use observation of spontaneous parent infant/child interaction during Floor Time to assess the child’s functional developmental capacities, motor and sensory processing (regulatory) profile, and interactive patterns with caregivers. Each case presents the full time spent with each child and family in the order they were seen, followed by a discussion of the professional impressions where they summarize the functional developmental capacities, the motor and sensory processing profile, as well as intervention ideas. Cases related to birth to three-year-olds can be watched for EI credit (up to 5.0 hrs): Introduction: The DIR model (45:13); Case 1. Alex, 3 years (70:00); Case 7. Curt, 3 years (80:00); Case 8. Gary, 22 months (66:00); Case 10. Alex, 2 years (87:24)
