Please note: For the most accurate testing it is recommended that the user becomes familiar with comparative testing using standard gold testing needles. You can still take a certified Colorado Drive Test in our Golden office on Thursday, August 2nd. However, we won't be able to take walk-in appointments that day.

Still the most popular articulation test available. The second edition of the Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation gives you updated norms and expanded features, and it remains accurate and easy to administer. The test provides information about a child’s articulation ability by sampling both spontaneous and imitative sound production. Examinees respond to picture plates and verbal cues from the examiner with single-word answers that demonstrate common speech sounds.

Additional sections provide further measures of speech production. Use this test to measure articulation of consonant sounds, determine types of misarticulation, and compare individual performance to national, gender-differentiated norms. New items, new artwork, new age range, new norms. New items have been added to sample more speech sounds—39 consonant sounds and clusters can now be tested with the Goldman-Fristoe 2.

Some objectionable or culturally inappropriate items (e.g., gun, Christmas tree) have been removed. All artwork has been redrawn and reviewed for cultural bias and fairness. The age range for the Goldman-Fristoe 2 has been expanded to include ages 2 through 21. Age-based standard scores include separate normative information for females and males. Normative tables are based on a national sample of 2,350 examinees stratified to match the most recent U.S. Census data on gender, race/ethnicity, region, and SES as determined by mother’s education level.

Goldman-Fristoe 2 retains the best features of the original test The second edition keeps the features that made the original Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation efficient and easy to use. Test 3 - User-friendly color-coding for recording initial-medial-final sounds.

Multiple testing of speech sounds within a word or plate for efficient test administration. Broad sampling of the consonant sounds and clusters used in Standard American English. Opportunity to sample both spontaneous and imitated production of speech sounds Supplemental Developmental Norms Booklet Organizations find the Supplemental Developmental Norms Booklet included in the kit advantageous. With it they can use the norms—based on developmental data—to set their own cutoff criteria for intervention services qualification. Easy to administer Sounds-in-Words uses colorful, entertaining pictures to prompt responses that sample the major speech sounds in the initial, medial, and final positions.

Suggested cues have been added for the examiner to help elicit spontaneous responses by the examinee. Additional sections provide a fuller sampling of the examinee’s ability to produce speech sounds and to reproduce sounds when modeled by the examiner. With streamlined test administration, the Goldman-Fristoe 2 is an efficient way to obtain a representative sample of an examinee’s articulation ability. Three sections sample a wide range of articulation skills.

Sounds-in-Words Section uses pictures to elicit articulation of the major speech sounds when the examinee is prompted by a visual and/or verbal cue. Sounds-in-Sentences Section assesses spontaneous sound production used in connected speech. The examinee is asked to retell a short story based on a picture cue. Target speech sounds are sampled within the context of simple sentences. Stimulability Section measures the examinee’s ability to correctly produce a previously misarticulated sound when asked to watch and listen to the examiner’s production of the sound. The examinee repeats the word or phrase modeled by the examiner. Increase your assessment clarity The works with the Goldman-Fristoe 2 to give you a more comprehensive diagnosis of both articulation and use of phonological processes.

Save when you purchase the two kits together. Visit SpeechandLanguage.com for more information Visit the web site for additional information and the SLP Forum discussion center. Increase efficiency with computer scoring and reporting The ASSIST software program is available to help score, calculate, and compare normative data for both Goldman-Fristoe 2 and KLPA-2 tests. At the touch of a button you can print out separate score summaries for the Goldman-Fristoe 2 and KLPA-2.

Or print out a combined report for detailed diagnostic information. Reports are easy to customize by test section and diagnostic topic; a Recommendations section even has summary text.

You also can set a local criterion to obtain developmental norms comparisons from the biggest and best standardization sample to date! In this case I would probably stop the test administration after a few non-responses and reschedule so child might be more comfortable and familiar with the examiner and the test environment. The score you currently obtained would be meaningless. You may also evaluate vocal development based on the child’s vocalizations in play activities, noting the child’s phoneme repertoire and syllable shapes in spontaneous productions rather than administering a standardized assessment. I’m still not sure how to use the Supplemental Developmental Norms to interpret child's performance. Basically, you can look at a child’s error sounds and positions in which errors occur and use the Tables to determine what percent of normal children correctly use these at the different age levels. If you want to know at what age 85% of children have the sound you would follow the chart across until you reach.85 or better.

In reference to the normative table for sound development, what is the exact chronological age for which the sample correctly produced the sounds? For example /b/ in initial position words, is it delayed at two years, zero months?
