The Functional Emotional Developmental Levels

Developmental, Individual Difference, Relationship-based (DIR) model intervention programs target specific goals at each level, assess and monitor using data collection and videotape sampling, and adjust goals and treatment strategies as the individual makes developmental progress. The Foundational Capacities for Development (FCD) provide guidance for caregivers and professionals on how to adjust their interactions. Developmental defines the fundamental capacities (levels) for joint attention and regulation, engagement across a wide range of emotions, two-way communication, and complex social problem solving. These in turn govern the development of symbol formation, language and intelligence. These developmental milestones build on one another and continue to evolve throughout the lifespan.
