    A shorter, 30-item Speech Sounds Perception Test maintains clinical utility, correlating highly with the original 60-item version. This validated shortened form is suitable for clinical use, with age and occupational status showing the strongest demographic correlations.

    Area of Science:

    • Speech-language pathology
    • Psychometrics
    • Clinical assessment

    Background:

    • The Speech Sounds Perception Test (SSPT) is a diagnostic tool.
    • Assessing speech sound perception is crucial for identifying speech sound disorders.
    • A lengthy test may pose challenges in clinical settings.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the psychometric properties of a shortened version of the Speech Sounds Perception Test.
    • To determine if a 30-item SSPT can effectively replace the 60-item version.
    • To assess the clinical utility and validity of the abbreviated SSPT.

    Main Methods:

    • Stepwise multiple regression analyses were employed to compare the 30-item and 60-item SSPT versions.
    • Group means for clinical populations were analyzed for both versions.

  • Predictive validity was examined with length of stay and previous admissions as covariates.
  • Correlations between the 30-item SSPT and demographic variables were calculated.

    • Main Results:

    • The 30-item SSPT demonstrated a high correlation with the 60-item version.
    • No significant differences in group means were observed between the two versions for clinical groups.
    • Covariates like length of stay and previous admissions did not substantially improve predictive validity.
    • Age and occupational status showed the strongest correlations with the 30-item SSPT scores.

    Conclusions:

    • The 30-item Speech Sounds Perception Test is a valid and reliable alternative to the full version.
    • The shortened SSPT can be utilized in clinical practice without compromising diagnostic accuracy.
    • Demographic factors, particularly age and occupational status, are associated with performance on the SSPT.
