Ages: 3 through 95 years
Administration: Individual; 15-20 minutes each
An innovative new measure, the VAS-E andVAS-R present full-color photographs to measure the breadth of an individual's vocabulary and oral language development. A complementary pair of norm-referenced tests designed for simple administration and scoring, the VAS-E and VAS-R can be used individually or in combination throughout an individual's life span.
The VAS-Expressive presents a single picture along with a verbal prompt (e.g., "What is this?"). Examinees are required to verbally provide a singleword response. The VAS-Receptive presents a set of four picture stimuli and asks examinees to select the picture that best corresponds to the word spoken by the examiner.
Ideal for use with nonreaders or with people who have reading or written language impairments, the VAS requires no reading or writing. The response format places a low demand on motor skills. Reliable change scores enable you to measure growth in vocabulary or oral language over time and in response to targeted interventions. The VAS Fast Guide, meant to quickly and efficiently orient you to the administration and use of the test, is included with your purchase of the Professional Manual.
