Assessing Grammar: The Languages of LARSP. Communication Disorders across Languages
Ball, Martin; Crystal, David; Fletcher, Paul
Multilingual Matters
This collection is a resource book for those working with language disordered clients in a range of languages. It collects together versions of the well-known Language Assessment Remediation Screening Procedure (LARSP) prepared for different languages. Starting with the original version for English, the book then presents versions in more than a dozen other languages. Some of these are likely to be encountered as home languages of clients by speech-language therapists and pathologists working in the UK, Ireland, the US and Australia and New Zealand. Others are included because they are major languages found where speech-language pathology services are provided, but where no grammatical profile already exists.
Descriptors: Speech Therapy, Grammar, Profiles, Speech Impairments, Communication Disorders, Speech Language Pathology, Foreign Countries, Guides, Screening Tests, Identification, Second Languages, Allied Health Personnel, Language Impairments
