My Reflection

Limited English

It's COMPLICATED!

Disadvantages

-Are nonverbal tests inherently flawed predictors?

Other advantages

-Brief Assessment

-No statistically significant mean scoring differences for Hispanic children with limited English skills

-Reserve use for when necessary

-Empirical evidence showing unbiased results

Score differences between White and African American children about .25 SD

-Not much independent research
