Developmental learning difficulties are among the prevalent exceptionalities school learners have today. In this regard, identification and placement are among the facilitators of later successful intervention for these groups of learners (WestOlatunji, Shure, Pringle, Adams, Lewis & Cholewa, 2010). However, there are not enough resources such…

Gregg, Brent A.; Sawyer, Jean – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2015
The question of what size speech sample is sufficient to accurately identify stuttering and its myriad characteristics is a valid one. Short samples have a risk of over- or underrepresenting disfluency types or characteristics. In recent years, there has been a trend toward using shorter samples because they are less time-consuming for…

South, Mikle; Williams, Brenda J.; McMahon, William M.; Owley, Thomas; Filipek, Pauline A.; Shernoff, E.; Corsello, Christina; Lainhart, Janet E.; Landa, Rebecca; Ozonoff, Sally – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2002
A study examined the validity of the Gilliam Autism Rating Scale (GARS) with 119 children (ages 3-10) with strict DSM-IV (Diagnostic Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV) diagnoses of autism. The GARS consistently underestimated the likelihood that children would be classified as having autism. Limitations of ratings scales and of the GARS…
