▪ Oral mechanism exam
• Oral structures were functional and not attention getting
• Functionality: Rate of movements of isolated gestures of the
articulators, diadochokinetic rate (rapid alternating movements)
• If seen: structurally Blueish line down the center: bone may not
be fully fused in the palate or bifid uvula→ submucosal cleft
• Palate unremarkable: if nothing is noted
▪ … standardized tests:
• How to note STs:
o CELF-5
o Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT-5): brief
description of what the test measures: a measure of
receptive vocabulary RECOGNITION
▪ MEAN STANDARD SCORE = 100; average range =
85-115
▪ Standard score = 102, Percentile Rank = 60th %ile
o Comprehensive Assessment of Spoken Language (CASL): a
broad assessment of language processing and production
skills
▪ Lexical
semantic index:
response to
vocabulary,
concepts, word
relationships
▪ Standard
Score: 112→
Percentile Rank=
72%ile→ high
average
▪ Syntactic Index (sentence formulation): 86→
Percentile 16th %ile→ low average
▪ Mean scaled scare 10 → average range of scores 7-
13
• Analysis
o Strengths: what is the common thread that runs through?
▪ Absolute strength: test score that is in the above average range (>115)
▪ Standard deviation on every standardized test is +/- 15 (185-115)
▪ Relative strength: strong score relative to the rest of the score (relative to
the individual him/herself)
o Weaknesses: observations + test scores→ what is the common thread that runs
through
▪ Absolute weakness: test score in below average range (<85)
