Description
Designed for use with children ages 6–16 recovering from brain injury,
PTBI™ is the only criterion-referenced, standardized test that assesses
the skills children need to return to school and function in the general education
curriculum. An effective and innovative tool, PTBI helps speech-language pathologists
and other clinicians determine children's neurocognitive, language, and literacy
abilities so they can identify strengths and weaknesses and implement effective
interventions. PTBI is also an essential tool for monitoring functional changes,
tracking recovery patterns over time, and guiding decision-making related to
school reintegration.
Equally useful for assessing children with acquired or traumatic brain injury,
PTBI is
- rigorously tested using cutting-edge item response theory (IRT) analysis and traditional test development methods, yielding strong evidence of reliability and validity
- focused on areas critical to school success, such as listening, speaking, reading, writing, gesturing, working memory, and problem solving
- easy to complete in just 30 minutes—won't overburden children likely to be fatigued or have attention issues
- field tested at trauma, rehab centers, and clinics across the country
- useful anytime during the recovery process—to assess abilities in the acute phases and to monitor progress on an ongoing basis
- easy to administer and score—the forms include concise, specific instructions for accurate use of PTBI
The complete PTBI includes all the components necessary for successful test administration: an Examiner's Manual with comprehensive guidelines and technical data; a Stimulus Book with all the visual stimuli needed to conduct the test; and Test Forms for recording information about the child's performance and scoring PTBI.
The first and only standardized test that assesses cognitive and academic skills after brain injury, PTBI is the tool every SLP needs to develop effective supports for children and get them ready for a successful return to the classroom.

"PTBI is a gift! We finally have a comprehensive and easy to administer
tool with which to obtain information ... PTBI will be our 'go-to' test for
pediatric brain injury from now on."—Mary Warburton, M.A., CCC-SLP,

"Finally, we have a test for children and teens based on a strong cognitive-linguistic
developmental framework with scientifically valid items designed to systematically
evaluate skills vulnerable to brain injury."—Julie Haarbauer-Krupa,
