Dyslexia Early Screening Test | Second Edition

DEST-2
To help educators and clinicians with early identification of young children who may be at risk for dyslexia, the DEST-2 assesses fundamental preliteracy skills that include prereading knowledge, memory, speed of processing, vocabulary knowledge, rhyming and phonological discrimination, and motor skill and postural stability (including copying and bead threading) for ages 4:6 through 6:5.
Coming soon! The DST-2 will be published in late 2024, combining the DEST-2, DST-J, DST-S, and DAST.
