Q

what do criterion referenced assessments do?

A

Measure a child’s performance against the ability to produce a target skill rather than against other children’s performance on a tool designed to assess that skill

25
are criterion-referenced assessments standardized or informal
can be both
26
what do criterion referenced tests allow us to measure?
to measure skills in terms of absolute levels of mastery.
27
what does criterion referenced test do?
do not tell us whether an individual differs significantly from the norm but are useful in helping to establish baseline functioning, developing intervention targets and in documenting progress.
28
what are the limitations of standardized measures?
does not represent of real world | cannot accomodate differences
29
when are screening assessments used?
to identify children who need further assessment
30
what are screening assesments useful for?
detecting the presence of absence of S S D but do not offer sufficient information for definitive diagnosis and intervention planning
31
what are 2 types of screenings?
primary screening and secondary screening
32
what is primary screening?
for mass populations; usually done by non-S L Ps (e.g., doctors, community nurses, teachers)
33
what is secondary screening?
usually done by S L Ps to identify areas (e.g., speech, language, fluency, voice) requiring comprehensive assessment
34
what are the scores of screening based on?
pass or fail
35
what is the issue w sensitivity?
false positives and false negatives
36
what is a informal screening?
asking simple question (e.g., (what is your name? What is your favorite toys, games, books? What did you do today?)
37
what is an formal screening?
Preschool Language Scale (PLS) (2000) | Quick Screen of Phonology (QSP) (1990)
38
what are diagnostic assessments?
Comprise detailed comprehensive information for diagnosing a child’s type of S S D
39
what are diagnostic assessments used for?
Used for intervention planning (e.g., selecting intervention targets and intervention approaches)
40
what is a static asssessment?
A child’s performance is assessed at one time
41
what are dynamic assessments?
consider a child’s performance and capacity to learn
42
are cues and feedback provided during a dynamic assessment?
yes, to find child's best capacity
43
who inspired dynamic assessments?
vygostky's zone of proximal development
44
what are the components of a routine comprehensive speech assessment?
Children’s context and development Intelligibility Speech production
45
what is intelligibility?
how well a listener understands a speaker
46
how can you assess intelligibility?
Rating scales (page 246) Single-word measures Connected speech measures
47
what is the issue of intelligbility?
the interdependence of the listener and the speaker; Listeners may make a different judgement
48
what speech elements are considered during an assessment?
``` Consonants Consonant clusters (if used in a language) Vowels and diphthongs Syllables and polysyllabic words Prosody Tones (if used in a language) ```
49
are consonants easier to produce in monosyllables or polysyllabic words
monosyllabic
50
are consonants produced in singleton contexts easier to produce than in consonant cluster contexts
yes
51
are velar consonants produced with back vowels easier than front vowels?
yes
52
are velars consonants easier in intial or final position?
initial
53
how to most articulation tests sample single consonants?
Most articulation tests sample singleton consonants in word-initial and word-final position, usually in monosyllabic words
54
what are phonology test?
sample potential for pattern-based errors
55
what are the four steps for eliciiting single words?
1. Ask “What’s this?” (bird) 2. Provide a clue “It has wings and flies” 3. Provide a binary choice with the target word produced first “Is it a bird or a house?” 4. Provide delayed imitation “It’s a bird. What is it?” Provide direct imitation. “Say bird”
56
what is connected speech sampling?
Provides a real-world (natural) view of children’s intelligibility and ability to produce speech in context
57
how many skills can you assess in connected speech sampling?
various
58
how do u assess connected speech?
Sample during play, narrative retell, picture description, sentence repetition, passage reading
59
how much of a sample do u need for connected speech?
min. 100 different words | adequate is 200-250
60
how is stimulability examined?
testing a child’s ability to produce a speech element that is in error (usually a consonant), in different contexts with instructional cues
61
what type of assesment is stimulability testing?
dynamic
62
how do you examine variability?
1. Different realizations of a sound in different words (e.g., /k/ realized differently in key /ki/ → [ki] and cat /kæt/ → [tæt]) 2. Different realizations of the same word (e.g., sleep /slip/ → [swip], [lip], [fliː])
63
what factors affect variability?
sampling condiiton and pragmatic condition
64
How Do You Assess Phonological Processing
Phonological access / naming Phonological memory Phonological awareness
65
how do you assess phonological access/ naming?
rapid naming tasks
66
ow do you assess phonological memory?
non-word repetition tasks
67
how do you assess phonological awareness?
tasks that require child to identify/ manipulate rhyme, syllables, and phonemes in words
68
what is the most complex level of phonoloical awarness?
Manipulation of sounds Identifying changes & Deletion of sounds Segment & Blending sounds
69
what ist he most simple phonological awareness abiliity?
Rhyming | Word/syllable segmentation/blending/deletion
70
why do we assess literacy of children w ssd?
Preschoolers with suspected S S D are at risk of literacy difficulties School-age children with S S D may have literacy difficulties
