Delgado, Christine E. F.; Scott, Keith G. – Journal of Special Education, 2006
This study demonstrates the utility of integrating birth certificate record data with an existing disability-tracking database for the purpose of evaluating early identification efforts. The authors examined referral rates of preschool-age children for several known disability risk factors. Low birthweight, low maternal education, and prematurity…

Delgado, Christine E. F.; Vagi, Sara J.; Scott, Keith G. – Exceptionality, 2007
Statewide birth certificate and preschool exceptionality records were integrated to identify risk factors for developmental delay (DD). Epidemiological methods were used to investigate both individual-level and population-level risk for DD associated with a number of child and maternal factors. Infants born with very low birth weight were at the…

Scott, Keith G.; Hollomon, Holly A.; Claussen, Angelika H.; Katz, Lynne F. – Infants and Young Children, 1998
Presents a model intervention program for young children with disabilities based on a public health approach that is empirically driven, with correspondence rules relating the independent to the dependent variables. The program was designed to provide a total-service intervention for infants prenatally exposed to cocaine. (Author/CR)

Claussen, Angelika H.; Scott, Keith G.; Mundy, Peter C.; Katz, Lynne F. – Journal of Early Intervention, 2004
Cocaine use during pregnancy is a high-risk indicator for adverse developmental outcomes. Three levels of intervention (center, home, and primary care) were compared in a full service, birth to age 3, early intervention program serving children exposed to cocaine prenatally. Data were collected on 130 children from urban, predominantly poor,…

Bono, Katherine E.; Dinehart, Laura H. Bolzani; Claussen, Angelika H.; Scott, Keith G.; Mundy, Peter C.; Katz, Lynne F. – Journal of Early Intervention, 2005
Prenatal cocaine exposure is an indicator for adverse developmental outcomes. To prevent developmental disabilities, an early intervention program for children birth to 3 years was developed that included three groups: center-based, home-based, and primary care comparison. The intervention was implemented across 10 years and data were collected on…
