6 Ways Bethel DREAM APP is Changing Speech Therapy
Empowering Clinicians with Cutting-Edge Tools to Transform Speech & Language Therapy
DREAM–C: The Foundation for Groundbreaking Research on Mandarin Language Delays
A flagship study published in The Lancet has established DREAM–C as the gold standard diagnostic tool for assessing developmental language disorder (DLD) in Mandarin–speaking children. As the primary assessment instrument, DREAM–C enabled the first large–scale population–based study in China, providing critical data on language development and impairment.

Key Study Findings Enabled by DREAM–C
8.5% of Mandarin-speaking children aged 5-6 in mainland China were identified with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD).
Children with DLD exhibited 2X higher rates of socio–emotional difficulties than their peers.
10X higher risk of academic struggles due to poor language skills.
