Amarillo - The
Functional Skills Screening Inventory, popularly known as the FSSI
has been released on Windows compatible format. This behavioral checklist allows for parents and professionals to
observe critical behaviors in individuals with multiple disabilities (7 years
to adult years). The strength of the
FSSI is found in its repeated use over time to compare the individual to self
on 343 items of basic life skills. The
Functional Skills Screening Inventory is used in transition planning from
school to work for students nearing the end of their educational program. The FSSI is available from Functional
Resources in Amarillo, Texas, phone 806-353-1114 (voice and fax). Functional Resources is a privately owned
company that provides computer-based assessments, in-service training for
parents, teachers, diagnosticians, and agency personnel, as well as on-site
consultation regarding program planning.
