Summary:

"The third edition of Language Sampling with Children and Adolescents: Implications for Intervention provides guidelines for analyzing spoken and written language production in both children and adolescents. The text, which is geared for graduate students and practicing speech-language pathologists, has been expanded to include preschool children (ages 3-4 years) and school-age children (ages 5-11 years), in addition to adolescents (ages 12-18 years). Included within the book are numerous figures, tables, and practical exercises (with answer keys) to help readers understand how to analyze the content and structure of the different discourse genres-conversational, narrative, expository, and persuasive-and how to utilize this information in establishing functional language goals and implementing intervention activities for children and adolescents with language disorders"-- Provided by publisher.
