Clinical Assessment Canada

Presenter: Gloria Maccow, PhD, HSP-P

Using PLS-5 and CELF Preschool-2 case studies, this session will provide information for selecting the test most appropriate for assessing language skills of a preschool child. The presenter will review the tests’ purpose and design and differences between the test formats, research samples, and test results. Guidelines will be provided for selecting the appropriate test for the child you are testing, interpreting score results and explaining score differences (if both tests were administered), and communicating results to stakeholders.
