A description of the rationale for the development of a rapid screening test of articulation combined with a new type of auditory discrimination test called “self-monitoring” is given. Standardization norms, equivalency of two alternate forms, test-retest reliability, interjudge reliability, and intercorrelations are provided. The articulation test is quick to administer; the self-monitoring auditory discrimination test is new. Results for both tests can be recorded on a single page.
