The Clinical Assessment of Articulation and Phonology - 2nd Edition (CAAP-2) is the most current assessment for articulation and phonology. It is time-efficient, accurate, and yields results that are easy to score and interpret.
Ages: 2-6 to 11-11 Testing Time: 15 to 20 minutes Administration: Individual Authors: Wayne Secord & JoAnn S. Donohue
The articulation inventory targets pre- and postvocalic consonant singletons; cluster words containing S, R, and L in the initial position; three- and four-syllable words; postvocalic productions of R; and the production of sounds in sentences (for children 5 years and older). The phonological process checklists assess final consonant deletion, cluster reduction, syllable reduction, gliding, vocalization, fronting (velar and palatal), deaffrication, stopping, prevocalic voicing, and postvocalic devoicing.
The checklist approach to assessing phonological processes virtually eliminates the need for phonetic transcription. The CAAP-2 is designed so that children will enjoy its administration. It helps you qualify students for therapy with word standard scores, sentence standard scores, and phonology standard scores. The checklist approach to assessing phonological processes virtually eliminates the need for phonetic transcription.

Valid and Reliable CAAP-2 is a valid and reliable instrument. The CAAP-2 standardization sample included 1486 children from the U.S. and closely resembles 2013 U.S. Census Data. Concurrent validity studies comparing CAAP to the GFTA-2 and the KLPA-2 were significant beyond p<.01 for all raw scores, standard scores and percentile ranks (ranging from .789 to .948). Inter-rater reliability coefficients were all above .99.
