Growth Scale Values (GSVs) have a long 50-year history within research. However, GSVs are only now gaining traction as an alternative and more precise way to measure outcomes in clinical trials.
This recorded presentation answers the questions:
- What are GSVs?
- Why are GSVs great for tracking change over time?
- Which tests currently offer GSVs scores?
- How do you compare GSVs to other metrics such as Raw Scores, Age Equivalents, and Norm-Referenced Scores?
- How do you interpret GSVs and scaled score performance?
