We also calculated the smallest real difference (SRD) for users to determine whether the change score rated by different raters for an individual child is valid. The CPEP-3 was administered to 42 children aged from 2 years 4 months to 7 years 7 months by two independent therapists twice, with an 11- to 21-day interval. The high internal consistency for performance subtests (Cronbach's alpha = 0.92–0.98) and composites (Cronbach's alpha = 0.92–0.95) in the CPEP-3 indicates the homogeneity of all the items in each subtest and composite. The inter-rater reliability of the CPEP-3, examined by intra-class correlation coefficient, ranged from 0.57 to 0.94 for the performance subtests, and 0.63 to 0.89 for the composites. The SRDs of the CPEP-3 ranged from 5.8 to 12.8 for the performance subtests, and 7.3 to 18.0 for the composites. The SRDs of the CPEP-3 were 14.4–51.8% of the possible highest scores of each subtest and composite. The substantial SRDs indicate that clinicians should consider such SRD values in determining whether a child's change score of the CPEP-3 indicates real change when the CPEP-3 is administered by different raters. Further studies to examine the construct validity, responsiveness, and minimally important difference of the CPEP-3 are needed to improve the utility of the CPEP-3.
