[POLLOCK, Karen]

Pam,
You've gotten lots of good referenes so far.  Two others I haven't seen
mentioned yet:

Kamhi, A., Pollock, K., & Harris, J.  (1996).  Communication Development and
Disorders in African American Children:  Research, Assessment, and
Intervention.  Baltimore:  Brookes.

Harris, J., Kamhi, A., & Pollock, K.  (2001).  Literacy in African American
Communities.  Manwah, NJ:  Lawrence Earlbaum Associates.

Hi -
I'm preparing to do research on African American children who speak AAVE and
assessment practices/dialectal differences awareness in speech/language
pathologists.  I'm hoping someone can direct me to good sources on best
practices in language (disorders) assessment for African American children,
especially those who speak AAVE.  Also, any sources on linguistic bias in
language assessment and/or incidence of language disorders in African
American children.

Thanks much,
