The Dimensional Method Cambrodí, which retains its original name, was scientifically transformed by his coauthors. It became an essential part of the evolutionary paradigm articulated by Dr. Cambrodí. It has subsequently been updated until processed in digital format (CD Rom edition) which allows us to evaluate computer screen. The CD Rom contains two major parts:
- An HTML document (Web page format) which replaces the previous manual and graphic materials.
- A program for correction, assessment and preparation of documentation automatically.
Users can collaborate on the database of results of scans. The information will be accessible to all registered users. It will facilitate further studies of subjects with disabilities.

Dimensional method is applied individually to people with developmental ages ranging between 3 and 8-9 years. They may have higher chronological age, depending on the degree of damage that has caused them to their intellectual limitation or less chronological age may have to evolutionary whether it is a person that evolves with giftedness (precocious, talented or gifted).
Content functionally evaluates the Dimensional Method is articulated through five major fields of competence or dimensions, which can be assessed independently. Their names and content are as follows:
– Motoric-kinesthetic: the motoric and postural behavior.
– Manipulative: the functional possibilities of hand.
– Communicative: the possibilities of oral and written communication.
– Cognitive: nominal and relational knowledge.
– Motivational-social: the psychosocial motivations, relationships with the environment and the level of autonomy.
In turn, each dimension is divided into five sections of twenty items each following an order of increasing evolutionary maturity. Thus the method comprises 25 sectors Dimensional 500 references in total, the most representative of the development of the subject 3 to 8-9 (ages typing samples).
Structured from the psychology, the information supplied by the Dimensional Method facilitates the work of professionals in conducting educational psychology programs, reports, technical reports and curricular adaptations based on the analysis of quantitative, qualitative and psychosocial aspects of it They are obtained.
