Population: Adults.
Scoring: The manual provides clear statements and rules for scoring protocols.
Reliability: Reliability of the subtests was studied by selecting protocols of 34 patients with a
degree of severity of aphasia ranging from slight to severe. Kuder-Richardson reliability
coefficients for subtests ranged from .68 to .98, with about two-thirds of the coefficients reported
ranging from .90 upwards. Since test-retest reliability is difficult if not impossible to attain with
patients suffering from aphasic symptoms, the current reliability coefficients demonstrate very
good internal consistency in terms of what the items within the subtests are measuring.
Suggested Uses: Designed for the assessment of aphasia for inpatient or outpatient populations.
