VagusX -> Correcting for prematurity when using the Peabody. (November 19, 2004 5:38:00 AM) Is there an an age when using the Peabody GMS where you do not correct for prematurity? For instance doing a 5 year old child assessment, would you still correct for his prematurity, or would this value be negligable at the late age?
