About this study

The period when human life activity most intense is the first years of life. Different practices such as voicing, speaking, sitting, walking, mental skills, communication, socializing acquire new skills. Infant Movement Motivation Questionnaire(IMMQ) 27-item scale that questions babies' discovery, activity, motivation, and adaptation skills in daily life activities through the parent. The scale was developed in 2012 by Samantha Doralp. As the scale provides information about how babies spend their time in their natural environment and the personal characteristics of babies, it was decided to carry out a validity and reliability study in the Turkish language, considering the early use of support programs in clinical use. The development of this scale shows the first step in understanding the role of baby characteristics in the movement development of babies in the first year of life. A good understanding of the link between baby characteristics and motor development can have a significant impact on planning interventions and can have a significant impact in ensuring that a particular environment is optimally tailored to the child's use and needs.
