						<p>Is this a new subtest? Is it something other than auditory comprehension at the sentence level rather than the paragraph level?</p>
						</td>
					</tr>
					<tr>
						<td>
						<p>It is not. The Sentence Structure test was renamed to better describe the construct being tested. It is auditory comprehension at the sentence level.</p>
						</td>

				</tbody>
			</table>

			<h4>Following Directions</h4>

			<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="accordion-component" style="width:500px">
				<tbody>
					<tr>
						<td>
						<p>One reason I stopped using the CELF is that the Concepts and Following Directions subtest was so heavily dependent on a child having adequate attention and memory that it often pulled a score down far below what made sense for a child. Children who have adequate concept knowledge and language skills but poor attention are penalized by this subtest. How does the new FD subtest compare to the old CFD subtest?</p>
						</td>
					</tr>
					<tr>
						<td>
						<p>The CELF-5 splits Concepts and Following Directions into two different subtests. One focuses on comprehension of concepts; the other is a set of items that requires a child to point to pictures following directions that are increasingly complex (1, 2, and 3 step commands.) Examples: &quot;Before pointing to the last square, point to the first circle.&quot;</p>

						<p>A student with a language disorder may have appropriate concept knowledge for his or her age, but experience difficulty in the classroom when he or she cannot integrate concept knowledge into increasingly long and complex directions typically given by teachers in the classroom. The difficulty may lie in understanding long complex directions and/or attention and memory deficits. You will need to work with the psychologist on your team to better understand the role of memory and attention that contribute to the child&#39;s deficits in comprehending complex directions. &nbsp;</p>

					</tr>
				</tbody>

			<h4>Formulated Sentences &nbsp;</h4>

			<table border="1" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1" class="accordion-component" style="width:500px">
				<tbody>
					<tr>
						<td>
						<p>While I understand the rationale behind this subtest for measuring syntax skills, I have found that children who have poor attention (and therefore memory) score more poorly on this subtest than is indicated by their conversational syntax.</p>
						</td>
					</tr>
					<tr>

						<p>The CELF-5 splits Concepts and Following Directions into two different subtests.

Examples: &quot;Before pointing to the last square, point to the first circle.&quot;</p>

						<p>There are two ways to look at a child&#39;s morphosyntax abilities: Formulated Sentences and Recalling Sentences. Formulated Sentences gives you information about a child&#39;s ability to construct a sentence without auditory cues; Recalling Sentences gives you information about a child&#39;s ability to use his or her knowledge of linguistic rules--to repeat a long sentence, a child has to have mastery of the underlying grammatical structures rather than depend on memory alone. Having both tests enables you to do some differential diagnosis&mdash;is a child capable of producing a morphosyntactically complex sentences on his own, but not in a sentence repetition task (then it may be an attention or memory problem) or is the child unable to do either task well? If the latter is the case, memory and attention may not be the issues causing the problem.</p>
