The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT-4) was chosen to assess receptive vocabulary performance. The Expressive Vocabulary Test (EVT-2) was selected to assess expressive vocabulary performance, as well as to accompany the PPVT-4 for comparison of receptive and expressive vocabulary performance. A non-word repetition subtest would be administered from the Comprehensive Test of Phonological Possessing (CTOPP-2) to examine word learning abilities, and a language sample would be collected to allow the clinician to observe Tyler’s communication abilities in a natural setting. The clinician allowed twenty minutes for the GFTA-3, fifteen minutes for the PPVT-4, fifteen minutes for the language sample, fifteen minutes for the EVT-2, and five minutes for the non-word repetition task.
