    Author: Grégoire J.
    Journal: Can Fam Physician; 1993 Apr; 39():856-63. PubMed ID: 8495143.
    Abstract:
    Between five and 20% of preschool age children have language problems. These can be related to the child's hearing, socioeconomic status, intellectual development, or a psychiatric disorder. Even when it is difficult to recommend a formal screening program, family physicians can interpret delays in speech and language as "indicators" of underlying disorders.
