Janet Dawson, Ph.D., Connie Stout, Ph.D., Julia Eyer, Ph.D., Pat Tattersall, M.A., Jan Fonkalsrud, M.A., and Karen Croley, M.S.

The SPELT®-P 2 includes 44 full color photographs of everyday situations and objects paired with simple verbal questions and statements to elicit specific morphological and syntactical structures. It allows for analysis of specific language structures that may not occur in spontaneous language samples. This new edition targets 40 items using 44 photographs to probe the young child's ability to generate early developing morphological and syntactical forms. The child's strengths and weaknesses can be readily identified. Target structures include prepositions, articles, plurals, possessive nouns and pronouns, subject pronouns, auxiliary verbs, copulas, present participles, past tense, third person markers, as well as negatives, conjoined sentence, "wh" question, interrogative reversal, infinitive phrase, propositional complement, relative clause, and front embedded clause.

Administration time is from 15 to 20 minutes.

Ages: 3-0 through 5-11.
