assessment of early literacy

• Early indicators • Family history • First word not produced until after 15 months • Words not combined until after 24 months • Difficulty pronouncing words past 6 years • Poor memory for and awareness of rhymes

descriptive

-Authentic assessment with focus on describing behaviors -Comparing past performance to current performance -Advantages: naturalistic context is emphasized, allows clinician to determine if the problems are affecting the client's day to day communicative interactions -Limitations: reliability and validity depend on the clinician and the language samples

formal test limitations

-elicit phonemes in only one phonetic contect -word level -only consonants -inventory of sounds -reliability questionable for disorders such as apraxia

Stimulability

-the client's ability to make a correct or improved production of an errored sound -client imitates the clinician -the client is given instruction and produces sound - provides important prosodic information

psychometric
