Phonological Disorders III: A Procedure for Assessing Severity of Involvement
Abstract
Data are presented to support the reliability, validity, and utility of a severity metric for phonological disorders. The metric, percentage of consonants correct (PCC), is readily derived from a continuous speech sample. PCC values are shown to reflect an ordinal severity scale that embraces the constructs of disability, intelligibility, and handicap. PCC values index four levels of "severity of involvement": Mild, mild-moderate, moderate-severe, and severe. The metric provides a means by which instructors, researchers, and speech-language pathologists working in different settings can specify subject descriptions, gauge the effects of intervention programs, and undertake cross-institutional projects. The metric is used as one component of a diagnostic classification system for phonological disorders (Shriberg & Kwiatkowski, 1982a) and within a framework for management of persons with phonological disorders (Shriberg & Kwiatkowski, 1982b), the first and second papers in this series.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
