This book constitutes a clear, comprehensive, up-to-date
introduction to the basic principles of psychological and
educational assessment that underlie effective clinical decisions
about childhood language disorders. Rebecca McCauley describes
specific commonly used tools, as well as general approaches ranging
from traditional standardized norm-referenced testing to more
recent ones, such as dynamic and qualitative assessment.
Highlighting special considerations in testing and expected
patterns of performance, she reviews the challenges presented by
children with a variety of problems--specific language impairment,
hearing loss, mental retardation, and autism spectrum disorders.
Three extended case examples illustrate her discussion of each of
these target groups. Her overarching theme is the crucial role of
well-formed questions as fundamental guides to decision making,
independent of approach.
