Criterion-Referenced Measures of Phonological Development
Proportion of Intelligible words:
- record sample of child's speech
- count # of unintelligible words
- divide by total # of words for ratio of unintelligible words
- check ration against intelligibility chart for interpretation
Phonological Awareness
- abilitly to detect rhymes, # of syllables, & first/last sounds in a word

Can tell us whether child is weaker or stronger in pragmatics skills (in relation to semantic, syntax, & phonology skills)
to DETERMINE pragmatic contexts in which new forms should be practiced

to IDENTIFY particular problems in interactions and conversations faced by those individuals whose prag. skills are the only lang deficit
