CTOPP-2 is a measure of phonological awarenes, phonological memory, and naming. The assessment features all new normative data and a new phonological awareness subtest: Phoneme Isolation.
Benefits
- Identify individuals whose phonological abilities are significantly below their peers.
- Determine strengths and weaknesses in phonological processing skills.
- Document progress in phonological processing following intervention.
- Collect data for phonological processing research.
Features
CTOPP-2 includes twelve subtests plus supplemental tests to assess specific phonological strengths and weaknesses are included. Applicable across two age levels, 4-6 and 7-24, the CTOPP-2 has five composites:
- Phonological Awareness Component Scores (PACS) represents awareness of and access to the phonological structure of oral language.
- Phonological Memory Component Scores (PMCS) helps to measure the ability to code information phonologically for temporary storage in working or short-term memory.
- The Rapid Symbolic Naming Composite Score (RSNCS) measures the ability to include efficient retrieval of phonological information from long-term or permanent memory and execute a sequence of operations quickly and repeatedly.
- Rapid Non-Symbolic Naming Composite Score (RNNCS) measures the ability to include efficient retrieval of phonological information from long-term or permanent memory and execute a sequence of operations quickly and repeatedly using objects and colors.
- The Alternate Phonological Awareness Composite Score (APACS), an alternate composite for measuring phonological awareness, is available for 7 through 24 year olds. The APACS measures phonological awareness exclusively with nonwords, memory, as well as the ability to execute a sequence of operations quickly and repeatedly.
