TOAL

TOAL

The Test of Adolescent and Adult Language: Third Edition (TOAL-3) is a language assessment that is norm based and used for individuals between 12 and 25 years old. The test measures receptive, written and expressive language. A speech language pathologist (SLP) administers the test and rates the score based on a normative process.

Components

The TOAL-3 is a specific language assessment measuring: listening, speaking, reading, writing, spoken language, written language, vocabulary, grammar, receptive language and expressive language.

Validity

Results regarding this language assessment are consistent. However, when measuring language there can be many variables and much is left to tester inference.
