Language Assessment Methods For Three Age Groups of ChildrenIllinois State University, ADDRESS CORRESPONDENCE TO: Dr. Ann Beck, Ph.D. 4720 Department of Speech Pathology and Audiology Illinois State University Normal, IL 61790–4720 This article describes results of a survey of licensed, midwestern, school-based speech-language pathologists regarding methods used to assess the language of children ages 3 to 5 years, 6 to 11 years, and 12 to 18 years. Striking similarities were found in methods used for each age group. Results of this survey are also compared to those of a similar survey done in a western state to indicate if national tendencies in language assessment may be present. How these methods relate to assessment practices recommended in literature and reasons cited by respondents for choosing these methods are discussed.
