[QUOTE="katiedid, post: 465655, member: 12902"] So, you'll want to know both with the speech evaluation and the Occupational Therapist (OT) evaluation, how far below the mean your kiddo is, as well as what the cutoff criteria for qualifying for services is (in case of speech). Some districts will qualify for services at 1 SD below the mean, others at 1.5 on one test. Others require multiple tests to qualify. Also, on the Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD)/Auditory Processing Disorders (APD). . .while it's something that can be tested for, it's still a somewhat controversial diagnosis. Make sure the Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) is doing not only speech testing but also testing for receptive/expressive language disorders. Receptive language disorders in particular can look a lot like a hearing/processing disorder. [/QUOTE]
