Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Review
Undergraduate use only - Need unit on test score interpretation - this then will make it different from all other "diagnostic books" ...the section relating to the assessment of child language needs to be expanded a very cogent reference for assessment tools with lists of tests, advantages and disadvantages of each tool, and supplementary measures. This textbook should prove to be invaluable to speech-language pathology students and professionals. It sets forth a holistic approach based on skill and education.

This clinical reference provides an in-depth look at the tests and measurements used by speech-language pathologists for patient assessment. Rather than a mere compendium of common tests, this text includes the theoretical framework behind each type of assessment, as well as procedural and referential information. Topics covered include differential diagnosis of communication disorders, scoring conventions of different test instruments, and language assessment instruments for both children and adults. This handbook will be of considerable value to clinicians not only when determining the appropriate tests for individual patients but also when evaluating test and measurement information about a patient.
