SCALES allows one to 'go deep' AND 'go wide' - which was leveraged in this paper

Go deep = Six language tests at the word, sentence and narrative level given to children at Year 1

Go wide = Weighted estimates representative of 6,451 Year 1 in mainstream Surrey

Ok, turning to twitter again for some help. Any idea of the rates of undiagnosed #DevLangDis in the population at large. I have the @PALS_SCALES paper at age 5, with details of rates of SLT referral, but have been looking for a bit more than this age 5 info.
