We Break Out Reports into Structured Sections: Overview, Data Analysis, and Interpretation for the Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation

Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation (DELV)

 

The DELV is an individually administered diagnostic test designed to be used by clinicians to identify speech and language disorders (or delays) in children. The DELV enables clinicians to assess aspects of language that are common to all varieties of English and critical to the development of language competence. Because the test measures these universal aspects of language, clinicians can use it to identify a child as having a speech or language disorder, regardless of the variety of English the child speaks.

Norming Information for Your Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation Report Template

According to The Psychological Corporation, the Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation (DELV) is not traditionally normed but is designed to identify language disorders in children from diverse racial, socioeconomic, and linguistic backgrounds. It effectively distinguishes between language differences due to cultural or dialectal variations and those arising from a language disorder (The Psychological Corporation, 2005). [Reference: https://www.pearsonassessments.com/store/usassessments/en/Store/Clinical-Assessments/General-Development/Diagnostic-Evaluation-of-Language-Variation/p/100000622.html]

Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation Evaluation Report Template Tables

Tables in the report template for the Diagnostic Evaluation of Language Variation are essential for summarizing diverse linguistic data, providing clarity and detailed insights into a child's language use. They help highlight how dialect and cultural variations impact language, distinguishing these factors from actual language disorders and thereby aiding in the development of culturally and linguistically appropriate intervention strategies.
