Assessment of Language-Related Functional Activities
Kathleen A. Baines, Ann W. Martin, and Heidi McMartin Heeringa.
Use this test to assess language-related functional activities in 30 to 90 minutes. Consists of ten subtests, each of which assesses a different functional activity: telling time, counting money, addressing an envelope, solving daily math problems, writing a check/balancing a checkbook, understanding medicine labels, using a calendar, reading instructions, using the telephone, and writing a phone message. While client performs each activity, record an objective, quantitative score. Subtests require use of all language modalities as well as cognitive and motor skills. Also allows observance of multiple cognitive processes, which can help eliminate administering specialized tests in certain areas.
