An evaluation of the Quick Neurological Screening Test (QNST).
The Quick Neurological Screening Test (QNST) is a brief screening instrument which purports to identify children having, or likely to develop, learning difficulties in the regular classroom. The development of the QNST is compatible with a model of learning disabilities which invokes the construct of minimal cerebral dysfunction. The instrument is examined from a theoretical and methodological perspective. Additionally, comments on screening programs in general are discussed.
