needs of all students and in monitoring progress throughout the course of
instruction. The majority of the test
are individually administered.
Easy-to-follow instructions are given for the administration ad scoring
of each test along with reproducible forms.
Interpretation is based on skill mastery and comparison of performance
among students in the classroom.

Comprehensive
Test of Phonological Processing (CTOPP)
Ages: 5-0 through 24-11
Testing Time: 30 minutes Administration: Individual
The Comprehensive
Test of Phonological Processing (CTOPP) assesses phonological awareness,
phonological memory, and rapid naming. Persons with deficits in one or more of
these kinds of phonological processing abilities may have more difficulty
learning to read than those who do not. The CTOPP was developed to aid in the
identification of individuals from kindergarten through college who may profit
from instructional activities to enhance their phonological skills. Because the
test battery spans such a wide range of ages, and the abilities it taps are so
varied across the ages, it was necessary to develop two versions of the test.
The first version, developed for individuals ages 5 and 6 (primarily
kindergartners and first graders), contains seven core subtests and one
supplemental test. The second version, for individuals ages 7 through 24
(persons in second grade through college), contains six core subtests and eight
supplemental tests. In both versions the supplemental tests are provided to
allow the examiner to more carefully assess specific phonological strengths and
weaknesses. Both versions are individually administered, taking about 30
minutes to administer the core subtests.
The
CTOPP has four principal uses: (a) to identify individuals who are
significantly below their peers in important phonological abilities, (b) to
determine strengths and weaknesses among developed phonological processes, (c)
to document an individual’s progress in phonological processing as a
consequence of special intervention programs, and (d) to serve as a measurement
device in research studies investigating phonological processing. The test
contains the following subtests: Elision, Blending Words, Sound Matching,
Memory for Digits, Nonword Repetition, Rapid Color Naming, Rapid Digit Naming,
Rapid Letter Naming, Rapid Object Naming, Blending Nonwords, Phoneme Reversal,
Segmenting Words, and Segmenting Nonwords.
Percentiles,
standard scores, and age and grade equivalents are provided. Percentiles are
easily understood by parents and others with whom the examiner might want to
share the results. Subtest standard scores have a mean of 10 and a standard
deviation of 3. The Phonological Awareness, Phonological Memory, and Rapid
Naming quotients have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Age and
grade equivalents show the relative standing of individuals’ scores.
Complete
CTOPP Kit includes Examiner’s Manual, 25 Profile/Examiner Record Booklets for
Ages 5 to 6, 25 Profile/Examiner Record Booklets for Ages 7 to 24, Picture
Book, and Audiocassette, all in a sturdy storage box. (1999)
