Abstract The MABAC-CDD was developed to address a requirement of an updated, standardized, comprehensive assessment tool in the area of maladaptive behaviors or problem behaviors for use with the Indian population. This study aimed to assess the validity of the MABAC-CDD checklist in order to standardize the tool, which is a 107-item frequency-based checklist with 14 areas or sub-domains that assess maladaptive behavior or problem behaviors for children with developmental disabilities below the age of 18 years. The study found the MABAC-CDD tool to have statistically significant criterion validity established through Pearson coefficient correlation at r=0.43 (p=<.001). The results of the validity of the 14 areas or sub-domains of MABAC-CDD are also discussed. This study helps in standardizing the tool and in establishing the validity of the MABAC-CDD for assessment of maladaptive behaviors among children with developmental disabilities in India.
