Description: About this productProduct InformationA GUIDE TO CLINICAL ASSESSMENT AND PROFESSIONAL REPORT WRITING IN SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGY, 1E not only provides guidance for the often overwhelming process of assessing speech and language disorders but also offers robust diagnostic report writing tools in one user-friendly resource. Organized by disorder, this book is the only one to provide a sample report for each of the major communicative disorders discussed. It also includes a chapter devoted to basic report writing skills and grammar. The assessment aspects of the book offer an in-depth chapter on counseling, a detailed and comprehensive chapter on dysphasia for both pediatric and adult populations, and a clear and practical chapter on assessment of accent. Each chapter is written by experts in their area of communication disorders and provides the following information: background and characteristics of the disorder; parameters for assessment; pertinent interview questions; an inventory and explanation of relevant formal and informal assessment measures in narrative and table format; a section on differential diagnosis to assist in teasing out the specific problem; and a sample case history with assessment tools chosen for that vignette along with rationale for making such selections. All this information is woven into a sample diagnostic report and a similar assignment is provided for practice, making this an ideal resource for ESL learners as well as students preparing for the praxis. Every chapter includes a list of key vocabulary and a glossary to familiarize your students with the professional vernacular relevant for writing diagnostic reports.Product IdentifiersPublisherDelamr Cengage LearningISBN-101435485327ISBN-139781435485327eBay Product ID (ePID)99580247Product Key FeaturesAuthorCyndi Stein-Rubin, Renée FabusPublication NameGuide to Clinical Assessment and Professional REPORT Writing in Speech-Language PathologyFormatTrade PaperbackLanguageEnglishPublication Year2011TypeTextbookNumber of Pages384 PagesDimensionsItem Length8.9in.Item Height1.2in.Item Width8in.Item Weight30.5 OzAdditional Product FeaturesLc Classification NumberRc423Reviews"This text provides a comprehensive guide to assessment and report writing in speech-language pathology.
