About the Book

Now in its fifth edition, Hegde's PocketGuide to Assessment in Speech-Language Pathology is a renowned resource, the first of its kind, and now a classic in communication sciences and disorders.

This fifth edition retains and enhances its unique feature of three books in one: a dictionary of assessment procedures, a textbook on assessment of every disorder of communication, and a comprehensive clinical guide useful in everyday practice. With this guide, students and professional clinicians have, at their fingertips, the encyclopedic knowledge of the entire range of assessment concepts, methods, and practical and easy-to-follow procedures.

The guide offers a quick as well as a detailed description of not only standard and standardized assessment procedures, but also task-oriented assessment outlines the clinician may follow in assessing every client with any kind of communication disorder. Many assessment outlines are self-sufficient in the manner of client-specific or criterion-referenced procedures that help evaluate assessment and treatment targets. The information may be efficiently reviewed before assessment sessions, course examinations, and the Praxis test in speech-language pathology.
