Bilingual English–Spanish Assessment™ (BESA™)
By Elizabeth D. Peña, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (University of California), Vera F. Gutiérrez-Clellen, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (San Diego State University), Aquiles Iglesias, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (University of Delaware), Brian A. Goldstein, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (La Salle University), & Lisa M. Bedore, Ph.D., CCC-SLP (Temple University)
“Measures like BESA are critically needed to compre hensively examine the language development of bilingual preschoolers.”
—Sandra Barrueco, The Catholic University of America
HOW BESA WORKS
Through a combination of subtests for students and surveys for teachers and parents, BESA reveals the big picture of a young bilingual child’s language develop ment. BESA includes:
3 subtests (in both English and Spanish) that address the key domains of morphosyntax, semantics, and phonology.
2 questionnaires: the Bilingual Input Output Survey (BIOS) and the Inventory to Assess Language Knowledge (ITALK)
Pragmatic activity used to establish rapport with the child and give clinicians an idea of how interactive the child will be during the assessment.

When a young bilingual child experiences language difficulties, it can be hard to tell if those challenges are due to a disorder or just limited exposure to the English language. Introduce tomorrow’s clinicians to BESA: the valid, reliable assessment that specifically responds to the needs of young Spanish-English bilingual children. For use with children ages 4 through 6 years who have varying degrees of bilingualism, the Bilingual English–Spanish Assessment (BESA) was developed to
• Identify phonological and/or language impairment in bilingual children and English language learners using a standardized protocol
• Differentiate between a delay in English language acquisition and a true language disorder
• Document children’s speech and language strengths and needs
• Monitor children’s progress in both languages and use the information to make decisions about intervention

“A ‘must have’…There’s no other standardized test that com bines a comprehensive assessment across a number of pa rameters associated with CAS, that’s based on a strong theo retical framework, and has both test validity and reliability.”
—A. Lynn Williams, Ph.D., Associate Dean and Professor at East Tennessee State University
Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skill (DEMSS)
By Edythe A. Strand, Ph.D. (Mayo College of Medicine), & Rebecca J. McCauley, Ph.D. (The Ohio State University)When a young child has a severe speech sound disorder—especially one severe enough to affect the child’s intelligibility—it’s critical to determine the degree to which motor speech impairment contributes to the disorder. Now there’s a psychometrically well-supported tool that helps speech-language pathologists do just that.
Dynamic Evaluation of Motor Speech Skill (DEMSS) is a dynamic, criterion-referenced assessment designed to help with differential diagnosis of speech sound disorders in children with severely impaired speech production. It’s administered by SLPs in a clinical setting, usually in 30 minutes or less. Developed by one of the leading experts on childhood apraxia of speech (CAS) and an expert on test development, this tool is an efficient way to assess children who have significant speech impairment, especially reduced phonemic and/or phonetic inventories, vowel or prosodic errors, poor speech intelligibility, and/or little to no verbal communication.
USE DEMSS TO:
• Diagnose severe speech sound disorders in children 3 and older
• Facilitate, confirm, or rule out a diagnosis of CAS
• Estimate the severity of a child’s disorder and what their prognosis might be
• Inform the development of treatment goals
• Make decisions about the most effective methods of cueing during treatment
Clear and comprehensive guidance is available to DEMSS users. The manual walks SLPs through every step of test administration and scoring, as well as interpretation. The accompanying video tutorial gives users a helpful overview of DEMSS and guides them through two administrations of the entire tool with two different patients: one with mild CAS and one with more severe CAS.
“Certain to become what many of us have longed for —a gold standard in childhood motor speech testing.” —Dave Hammer, VP of Programs, Apraxia Kids
