The best ways to identify most young children with language disorder are still to ask parents questions 📝, or for a clinician to observe the child 👀.

Here is a super short set of questions you can ask parents to identify 2-3-year-olds likely to have later language difficulties! 3/n
⭐ NEW TOOL FOR PREDICTING LANGUAGE OUTCOMES ⭐

In 2 previous studies we identified sets of 5-7 questions we can ask parents when their child is 2-3yo that can predict >70% of kids with language difficulties at 11y.

This is now available as a tool for researchers: github.com/lottiegasp/l... 1/13
