What is the age range for the Denver Developmental Screening Test II?

• A. Birth to 6 years
• B. 1 to 5 years
• C. 2 to 8 years
• D. Birth to 3 years

Answer: (A)

The Denver Developmental Screening Test II is designed for children from birth through 6 years of age, covering infancy, toddlerhood, and the preschool years. This range allows screening across four developmental domains—personal-social, fine motor-adaptive, language, and gross motor—to identify potential delays that may need further assessment. Because the instrument includes items appropriate from birth up to age 6, it cannot be limited to only older or younger ages. So the option that reflects birth to 6 years best fits the test’s intended use, whereas ranges that end earlier or extend beyond six years don’t align with the test’s scope.
