Phonological Disorders III: A Procedure for Assessing Severity of Involvement.

Shriberg, Lawrence D.; Kwiatkowski, Joan

Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, v47 n3 p256-70 Aug 1982

Data are presented to support the reliability, validity, and utility of a procedure to assess the severity of a phonological disorder. The severity metric, the percentage of consonants correct (PCC), is readily derived from a continuous speech sample. PCC values index four levels of severity of involvement: mild, mild-moderate, moderate-severe, and severe. (Author/SEW)
