Abstract

We welcome a critique from our Denver friend and colleague, with his long experience in validating screening tests. No criticism of the DDST as a developmental screen was intended in our article. We merely wanted to make the point Dr Frankenburg himself has so succinctly stated that "outcome measures . . . such as syntax and articulation problems, are not even ascertained with the DDST test. . . ." The justification for our proposal that a language screening test like the ELM be used is, indeed, that the DDST is not a comprehensive language screen, as Dr Frankenburg concedes.
