| Short Description of Instrument |
The Percentage of Consonants Correct-Revised (PCC-R) (Shriberg & Kwiatkowski, 1982; Shriberg, et al., 1986), is computed from a 5- to 10-minute conversational speech sample, and calculated on the percentage of intended consonants that are produced correctly (Gordon-Brannan & Curtis, 2007). Speech-sound omissions, substitutions, and distortions are all considered as incorrect consonants. The PCC-R is one component of a diagnostic classification system for phonological disorders (Shriberg& Kwiatkowski, 1982).
Ages: 18 mo – 21 y
|
| Scoring |
Severity of consonants produced correctly falls into four levels:
Mild > 85%
Mild to Moderate 65 – 85%
Moderate 50 – 65%
Severe < 50%
