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 comprehensively examine the language development of bilingual preschoolers.” —Sandra Barrueco, The Catholic University of America
ORDER EXAM COPY 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 development. 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
BESA BENEFITS: LEARN MORE: www.brookespublishing.com/besa
•
Valid and reliable
•
Culturally and linguistically appropriate
•
Helps gauge progress in both languages
•
Flexible and convenient—use each BESA component independently or combine them as part of an assessment battery
