Phonological Assessment and Treatment Targets Analysis Forms (Barlow, Storkel & Taps, 2010)

These documents feature a step-by-step sequence that allows SLPs to fully describe and analyze each child’s phonological system in both English and Spanish. On the English version, SLPs note the child’s phonetic inventory, phonemic inventory, clusters, stimulable and nonstimulable sounds out of the system. On the Spanish version, SLPs note the child’s phonetic inventory, clusters, stimulable and nonstimulable sounds out of the system. Given this data, treatment targets are identified based on the maximum change possible. Rationales for target selection include application of language universals, treating nonstimulable sounds and/or teaching a new structure, such as three-element clusters.
