Abstract:
Children with early language delays are at increased risk of persistent language impairment. Early identification and intervention are desirable. Parent-report inventories are useful screening tools, but the screening context places limits at their length. Validity of parent-report screening tools in languages other than English has been rarely reported in detail. At the same time, children were administered a picture-based comprehension and production task. Concurrent validity of the inventory was examined using correlations, partial correlations, and regression analyses controlling for age. A 40-item tool shows clear concurrent relations with an examiner-administered picture comprehension and production task. The research demonstrates that short parent-report tools may be useful in early identification of language impairments.
