title: The Slingerland Screening Tests for identifying children with specific language disability: screening for learning disabilities in first grade.
abstract: The responses on the Slingerland tests of 29 learning disabled and 11 nondisabled children in Grade 1 distinguished the two groups, except for copying (near vision). Copying (far vision) and auditory, visual, and kinesthetic perception and discrimination together were the strongest predictors of group membership.
