What is the RRSM?

The Regulation-Related Skills Measure (RRSM) is an ecologically valid, objective, observation-based measure of children's RRS.  It further breaks-down the 6 RRS domains into 16 observable skills, which are measured by the RRSM. For example, a child's ability to control his/her physical movement is an observable skill (i.e., we can see it as we watch the child engage in classroom activities). This skill falls under the domain of Impulse Control (e.g., the child resists the impulse to jump up and down when an exciting new activity begins), which is a key component of overall Inhibition.
