The document discusses interpretation in child observations and evaluations. It states that interpretation involves making inferences based on biases, theories, past experiences and observations. There are different types of interpretations like relating observations to theories or developmental data. Interpretation provides meaning to observations by forming explanations and patterns among observations. It allows one to learn about a child's behaviors, emotional state, and social skills through imposing personal biases and theoretical beliefs on facts. Interpretation often involves moving from direct observable behaviors to making inferences about something not directly observed.
