. 2019 Jan 22;61(3):242–285. doi: 10.1111/dmcn.14132

Recommendation 33	GCP
We recommend that formal standardized outcome measures are used for assessment, and are repeated at the end of intervention or at least every 3 months if intervention is longer, to evaluate the effects of an intervention programme and goal attainment and to determine whether further intervention is required. We recommend to evaluate intervention effects using psychometrically sound outcome assessment tools that capture the levels of both activities and participation. We also recommend other evaluation sources including clinical examination, the child's self‐report, family report, teacher/kindergarten reports, questionnaire information, activity monitoring, etc.	⇑⇑
