A significant discrepancy in the actual functioning of an infant or toddler when compared with the functioning of a nondisabled infant or toddler of the same chrono- logical age in any of the following areas of development: Physical devel- opment, cognitive development, com- munication development, social or emotional development, and adaptive development as measured using stand- ardized evaluation instruments and confirmed by clinical observation and judgment. A significant discrepancy exists when the one area of develop- ment is delayed by 25 percent or 2 standard deviations or more below the mean or when two areas of develop- ment are each delayed by 20 percent or 11β2 standard deviations or more below the mean.
