Test Review: Prueba del Desarrollo Inicial del Lenguaje.
Crawford, Alan N.
Reading Teacher, v38 n4 p428-31 Jan 1985
Concludes that the PDIL (the Spanish version of the Test of Early Language Development) should be used with caution. Since its reliability and validity were determined with the English language version, the method used to translate test items may have some ambiguities, and some illustrations on picture cards may not be culturally appropriate for some Spanish-speaking children.
