BOAT YOCH


INTRODUCTION

You are going to fill in this BOAT Questionnaire for a child, a youngster or a mentally challenged adult with a cognitive developmental age between 3½ and 6 years. The BOAT-YOCH consists of 4 parts (A1, A2, B1 and B2), which must be completed together in one session. None of your data will be stored on this website. At the end of the questionnaire you can download a visual image (the 'Interaction wheels') as a PDF. file and your numerical data as an IAK-file. You can reopen a saved iak file with this program (or with another BOAT-YOCH program from Interaction Compass). You can use both files at your own discretion. The Interaction Wheels for example, can be used as a discussion tool with your colleagues, if you work in Education, Youth Care or Care for mentally challenged Adults. Or you can send BOTH files to an expert on the Interaction Compass for further elaboration (e.g. your supervisor, counselor or the psychologist concerned).
