CSBS-DP Online Speech Screener

Are you concerned about your child’s communication development? The Communication and Symbolic Behavior Scales – Developmental Profile (CSBS-DP) Infant/Toddler Checklist is a quick screener designed to measure early communication and symbolic skills in young children. It aims to identify children ages 6 months to 24 months of age who have or are at-risk for developing a communication impairment. This screener can also be beneficial for children between the ages of 25 to 36 months.

The CSBS-DP speech screener addresses seven language predictors, including emotion, use of gestures, sounds, words, objects, and understanding words.

CSBS-DP Speech Screener results will be delivered via e-mail.
