The Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals-Revised (CELF-R) showed lower scores for Scottish children on expressive language tests compared to American norms. Further research is needed for reliable use with Scottish children experiencing language impairments.

Area of Science:

  • Speech and Language Pathology
  • Child Language Development
  • Psychometrics

Background:

  • Limited standardized language assessment tools exist for older children.
  • The Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals-Revised (CELF-R) is widely used but standardized on American children.
  • Concerns exist regarding the applicability of the CELF-R to UK populations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the performance of Scottish language-normal children on the CELF-R.
  • To compare Scottish children's CELF-R scores against American standardization data.
  • To evaluate the suitability of the CELF-R for use with Scottish children.

Main Methods:

  • Administered the CELF-RUK to twenty Scottish children aged 12;0-12;11 years.
  • Compared scores from Scottish children to the original American standardization sample.

  • Analyzed differences in performance on expressive and receptive subtests.

    • Main Results:

    • Scottish children scored significantly lower on expressive subtests compared to American norms.
    • No significant differences were found for receptive subtests between Scottish and American samples.
    • Performance variations suggest potential cultural or linguistic differences impacting test results.

    Conclusions:

    • The CELF-R may not be directly applicable to Scottish children without further validation.
    • Expressive language subtests require careful consideration when interpreting scores for Scottish children.
    • Additional research is recommended to ensure confident use of the CELF-R with Scottish children, particularly those with language impairments.
