Life Skills Questionnaire
Thank you for your interest in this online questionnaire about children's life skills. By completing the questionnaire, you are providing data that will be used to determine the order of acquisition that typically developing children master different daily living skills.  

The questionnaire will gather information on the life skills ability of your child within 8 areas (leisure, meal preparation, time management, self-care, house keeping, laundry, food shopping and money skills).  The questions asked in this questionnaire cover a wide range of life skill tasks. This begins with simple tasks and progresses to complex tasks that are completed by adults. Therefore, your child may only be able to complete a few of the tasks due to their age. This is not a problem and will give us a clear picture of the life skills abilities of children of different age points.  

Ethical approval for this study has been agreed. None of the information that we gather from you will allow you or your child to be identified. You will not be asked to provide any identifying information such as names or location so all the information you enter is anonymous. All data will be kept securely and in accordance with the Data Protection Act and GDPR regulations.  

If you do not want your child’s data or your responses to be included in this study, then please do not proceed any further.  

If you decide that you would like to participate in this project your participation will consist of:  

1. Accessing the online survey

2. Taking 15-20 minutes to answer the survey questions to reflect your child current life skill abilities

When you have fully completed the survey it will automatically submit, and this is the end of your participation.

Instructions for parents

We are aware that with some tasks, your child can perform them but chooses not to. For example, they can make their bed in the morning but do not do this task without a parent/carer asking them to do so. This is quite common behaviour across all ages. Therefore, when answering the questions, please consider your child's ability to complete the task, rather than their motivation to do so. If they can make their bed without assistance, and you have observed them doing so on several occasions, please indicate that this is a skill they are able to do independently.  

When considering if your child is independent with a skill or tasks, this means they can complete the listed skills without any physical or verbal assistance or the need for encouragement or reassurance (unless otherwise stated). Please ensure that you have seen your child complete the skills on at least 3 occasions so you are sure they can constantly perform the task. If you are unsure or not confident that your child is able to complete the skill, please select ‘no’.
