Background: The Language Development Survey (LDS) and the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories (MB-CDI) are two parental report forms that have been productive in providing data on early child language during the past 30 years. The instruments have been used both in studies relating to typical developing children and in screening…

Wang, Ji; Hedley, Darren; Bury, Simon M.; Barbaro, Josephine – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Screening for autism spectrum disorder is the first step toward early detection and diagnosis, thereby impacting the likelihood of children accessing early intervention and, importantly, improving long-term outcomes. This systematic review aimed to (a) establish a clear baseline of autism spectrum disorder screening tools currently used throughout…

Cahyadi, Muhammad; Aqilah, Thalsa Syahda; Ediyanto, Ediyanto; Junaidi, Ahsan Romadlon – Discourse and Communication for Sustainable Education, 2022
The high prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) necessitates acquiring early detection tools that can lead to appropriate interventions for children and assist children in performing as many life functions as possible. In addition, early detection tools for ASD can realize quality early childhood development. This study aims to review…

Limited access to screening and evaluation for autism spectrum disorder in children is a major barrier to improving outcomes for marginalized families. To identify and evaluate available digital autism spectrum disorder screening resources, we simulated web and mobile app searches by a parent concerned about their child's likelihood of autism…

Malone, Susan Kohl – Journal of School Nursing, 2011
Cognition, memory, safety, mental health, and weight are all affected by inadequate sleep. Biological studies indicate significant changes in sleep architecture during adolescence, such as changes in melatonin secretion, and a need for greater total sleep time. Yet, social contexts and cultural values impinge on these changing biological sleep…

Lindsay, G. A.; Wedell, K. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1982
The basic assumptions underlying the development of early identification procedures for at-risk children are reviewed. The effectiveness of screening measures designed to identify educationally "at-risk" children is critically examined. It is concluded that there is a general lack of evidence for the usefulness of such instruments. (Author)

Kochanek, Thomas T. – Journal of Special Education, 1980
Recommendations for surveillance programs include: (1) screening systems should include multiple sources of data for decision making; (2) conceptually, screening should include procedures that assess the ongoing transaction between the child and the caregivers in his/her environment; and (3) surveillance should be conducted serially over time.…
