Levels of Conformance discussed on April 10, April 17, 2020

Jeanne asked me to send an email to the list about the conversation we have had about levels of conformance, on the last 2 calls. Please see below...

During the last 2 Silver TF meetings we discussed selecting a range of accessibility from inaccessible to good enough to superior. I suggested we benchmark off of neuropsychological evaluations since they run a myriad of comprehensive tests that rate on a similar scale to determine the functional capacity of individuals. John Foliot liked the idea, and suggested we select 5 levels (3 being not enough, 7 being too many). John also asked me provide insight on how many levels I’ve seen in neuropsyche evals, since I offered to use mine from over the years, as a benchmark. Over the last 24 years I have seen the following 9 levels, in various tests:
Impaired,

Mildly impaired,

Moderately impaired,

Severely impaired,

Average,

Low average,

High average,

Superior,

Very superior.

At the last Silver TF meeting there was consensus for John’s suggestion to select 5 levels.
