TEST DESCRIPTION:<br />

790.390 test<br />

The Kaufman Speech Praxis Test for Children (KSPT) is an innovative new resource that assists in the diagnosis<br />

<strong>and</strong> treatment of developmental apraxia (dyspraxia) of speech in preschool children.<br />

Developed by Nancy Kaufman, a national authority on verbal dyspraxia, the KSPT identifies the level of<br />

breakdown in a child's speech so that treatment can be established <strong>and</strong> improvement tracked. Easy to administer<br />

<strong>and</strong> score, the test measures a child's imitative responses to the clinician, locates where the child's speech<br />

system is breaking down, <strong>and</strong> points to a systematic course of treatment.<br />

Results of the KSPT are useful beyond establishing an initial diagnosis. Gains in motor-speech proficiency can be<br />

measured <strong>and</strong> quantified in several ways. Individual sections of the test can be used to establish treatment goals<br />

<strong>and</strong> measure progress. KSPT results can also help generate individual education plans. This assessment tool is<br />

essential for speech-language pathologists who work <strong>with</strong> children in public schools, hospitals, universities,<br />

clinics, <strong>and</strong> private practice.<br />

The KSPT kit contains: scoring instructions, norm tables, validity <strong>and</strong> reliability information, background about the<br />

test development, <strong>and</strong> 25 test booklets, which can be used twice (once for the original assessment <strong>and</strong> once for a<br />

follow-up test).<br />

This assessment tool is designed for use in conjunction <strong>with</strong> the Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation, First<br />

Edition. It can be used to diagnose <strong>and</strong> plan remediation programs for common phonological processes.<br />

articulation/ phonological disorders.<br />

The KLPA makes use of 44 words elicited by the Goldman-Fristoe Sounds-in-Words Subtest. With the<br />

Goldman-Fristoe the KLPA makes a very comprehensive analysis of speech disorders to help set therapy goals.<br />
