Comprehensive Assessment of Spoken Language | Second Edition

Free online scoring is available for kit purchasers who can create an account. When you log into your account for the first time, you will automatically have access to the scoring.

Test items are designed to focus on the main area of interest (synonyms, antonyms, idioms, etc.) to reduce or eliminate the need for memory where possible.

Benefits

• Quickly isolate the specific skill, category, or processing ability to be assessed.
• Leverage stable and reliable results over time and across raters, with strong internal consistency and test-retest and interrater reliability.
• Evaluate response to intervention (RTI), using the CASL-2 to track improvement over time.
• Answer a variety of referral questions including eligibility for speech services, placement in special education, determining if a language delay or disorder is present, or measuring language abilities in English language learners.
