Australian Standardised Adaptation

The Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals- Fourth Edition Australian Standardised Edition (CELF-4 Australian) features a new approach to assessment that enables you to accurately and reliably assess a child's language difficulties in one-third less time than CELF-3.

 

The CELF-4 Australian, a part of the new CELF Australian Family of assessments, has been updated with Australian norms reflecting the 2001 Census, and with improved diagnostic power, it uses a four-level assessment approach to identify students with language disorders quickly and with confidence. Initially, you can administer four of CELF-4 Australian's most discriminating subtests to get a Core Language Score to determine if a problem exists and whether the student qualifies for services.     Determine nature of disorder

Going beyond the initial diagnosis, the next step in the CELF-4 Australian assessment process helps you to determine the nature of the language disorder: the student's language strengths and weaknesses; Receptive Language and Expressive Language Index Scores; and new to CELF-4 Australian, additional composite scores - Language Structure, Language Content, Language Memory, and Working Memory Index Scores.

Further testing with supplementary subtests - Phonological Awareness, Rapid Automatic Naming, Number Repetition, Familiar Sequences, and Word Associations - enables you to determine what critical clinical skills and behaviours underlie the student's language disorder.

To determine a student's academic and language learning needs in the classroom, use the CELF-4 Australian components that provide a bridge to classroom language and broad-based IEP planning. Use the Observational Rating Scale (ORS) and Pragmatics Profile as authentic and descriptive measures of a student's language performance at school and at home.

CELF-4 Australian ultimately gives you everything that you are looking for when evaluating a student's language performance. Combine core subtests with supplementary subtests to get a comprehensive assessment of a student's language skills as you create a pathway to intervention.

Updated Australian norms reflect the 2001 Census and include 852 Australian children and young adults.
Simple to administer and score, CELF-4 Australian has two new easy-to-use Record Forms that provide only the subtests you need based on the student's age
