Article Synopsis
- The study examined the reliability, validity, and diagnostic accuracy of the Intelligibility in Context Scale in both Saudi Arabic (ICS-SA) and English (ICS-E) for bilingual preschoolers in Saudi Arabia, including 36 parent-child dyads.
- Results showed that parents rated their children's speech intelligibility similarly in both languages, with high internal consistency for both scales (α = 0.96 for ICS-SA and α = 0.95 for ICS-E).
- The ICS-SA demonstrated high reliability, while the ICS-E had fair to high reliability, indicating that further testing is needed for the English version to enhance its validity and diagnostic utility.
