Developmental, Mental Health/Behavioral and Academic Screens

Compiled by Frances Page Glascoe, Ph.D. Professor of Pediatrics, Vanderbilt University, with assistance from other screening test authors and screening test researchers whose wor s are described below.

The following chart is a list of measures that meet standards for screening test accuracy, meaning that they correctly identify, at all ages, at least 70% of children with disabilities while also correctly identifying at least 70% children without disabilities. All included measures were standardized on nationally representative samples in North America, are proven to be reliable i.e., inter!rater, test!retest, and internal consistency of ."# or greater$, and are validated against a range of diagnostic measures. %etails on the psychometric support for each tool along with research findings on discriminant validity can be found on each publishers& website or within the manuals for each test$. 'easures are sorted into those that are most feasible in health care versus early childhood or other programs where there may be more time, s(ill, and, for educational programming purposes, a greater need to observe and directly test children during the process of screening$. )eneral or broad!band screens are presented first. These cover the broad domains of development, i.e., cognitive*academic, language, motor, self!help$. +ome broad!band screens also cover social!emotional*behavioral*mental health. A list of condition!specific or narrow!band tools follow. These measures should be administered only after problematic performance on a general screen and thus focus on only a few domains e.g., autism spectrum disorder, developmental!behavioral*mental health status, etc.$. The free evaluations and intervention services guaranteed through the ,ndividuals with %isabilities -ducation Act ,%-A$ are always the first best referral option. Nevertheless, narrow!band tools can help determine the need for simultaneous referrals to specialty clinics e.g., autism!specific, motor!disorders specific, etc.$ Throughout, the first column provides publication information, the cost of purchasing a specimen set, and the training options available. The .%escription/ column provides information on alternative ways, if available, to administer measures e.g., waiting rooms$. The .Accuracy/ column shows the percentage of patients with and without problems identified correctly. The .Time 0rame*1osts/ column shows the costs of materials per visit along with the costs of professional time using the an average salary of 230 per hour$ needed to administer and interpret each measure. Time*cost estimates do not include e4penses associated with referring. 0or parent report tools, administration time reflects not only scoring of test results, but also the relationship between each test&s reading level and the average percentage of parents with less than a high school education who may or may not be able to complete measures in waiting rooms due to literacy problems and thus will need more time!consuming interview administrations$. 'easures in each table are arranged according to the time re5uired to administer them by interview or directly to children, from least to most. ,nformation about electronic options is included at the end of the table. -lectronic applications can reduce human error, automate scoring, generate referral letters, and aggregate results which is helpful for program evaluation and 5uality improvement initiatives. 6hile somewhat more costly than print, electronic options offer time!savers that offset the costs of hand!scoring, writing referral letters, etc. 1

Please note: 7$ Not included are measures such as the %enver!,,, %,A8!,,,, -+9, -!8A9, Nippising, etc. because they fail meet (ey technical standards for screening test construction problematic standardization samples, out!of!date norming procedures, absent validation, and limited to no proof of accuracy$: measures such as the 1AT!18A'+ because they were standardized on referred preterm or very low birth weight$, not general populations$: and*or measures of ;ust a few developmental domains e.g., language! or motor!specific screening tools$: <$ Also not included are diagnostic measures such as the =anderbilt %iagnostic A%>% +cale, because such tools should only be used after a broad!band screening test indicates the need e.g., 9+1$. The rationale is that, for e4ample, conditions that present as A%>% can actually be symptoms of other problems such as academic deficits, depression, an4iety, etc.: ?$ ,n settings where there are health care providers, such professionals can and should, document carefully, both medical history and physical e4am to determine whether organic conditions are contributory, a list of e4am foci are described in a footnote.a @$ 6hen screening test results are problematic, referrals should begin with ,%-A services. +ee footnotes for referral options.b This allows intervention to commence even while children typically need to wait for medical specialty e4ams, autism focused clinics, etc. 0or medical professionals it may seem odd to refer for treatment before a diagnosis is finalized, but with young children who are those who benefit most from early intervention$, eligibility criteria are generally only a percentage of delay, and do not re5uire specific nosology.
Screens for Primary Care* (all rely on information from parents due to enhanced efficiency under time constraints. All cover developmental domains. Some also cover social-emotional, behavioral and mental health issues. Some can be administered by interview while others depend on parents, and optionally clinicians, to elicit skills).
