The PPCP elicits an extensive portrait of a parent's knowledge and understanding of a specific child. It helps the Evaluator assess the degree to which a parent's perception:
(1) are accurate;
(2) compare to other sources;
(3) reflect genuine interest in a child.
The PPCP also assesses the irritability potential of a parent towards a specific child. The Parent Perception of Child Profile offers a parent an opportunity to express what he or she knows about a particular child in a wide variety of important life areas.
Responses are gathered in eight categories:
• Interpersonal Relations
• Daily Routine
• Health History
• Developmental History
• School History
• Fears
• Personal Hygiene
• Communication Style
The PPCP can be Evaluator-administered or self-administered. One main use of the PPCP is to compare the responses of selected respondents, e.g., the two parents. Comparisons can be made in several ways, including accuracy and depth of knowledge in any given life area, especially one (or several) deemed critical to a particular child, and the feelings and attitudes expressed.
