Remember how we all learned the rule: 2 years = 50

Remember how we all learned the rule:
2 years = 50% intelligible 3 years = 75% intelligible
4 years = 100% intelligible

And then (Hustad et al., 2021) came out and said:
4 years = 50% intelligible
5 years = 75% intelligible
7+ years = 90% intelligible

Very different…which caused a stir. Here’s the thing. These studies are completely different.

The 2021 study’s numbers are based on unfamiliar listeners in an unknown context. In fact, the strangers listened to recordings, so there were NO CONTEXT CLUES - facial expressions, gestures, etc. While the old study (Weiss, 1988) was based on parent report. Parents understand their children better than others, and parents can easily overestimate their child’s abilities.

No wonder these numbers are so different.

So what does this mean for us? We need to know the criteria these percentages were derived from, so we can adequately assess children. As a child’s SLP, we land somewhere in the middle of being a stranger listening to a recording and the parent. Fingers crossed, we get more studies to provide more clarity!

What are your thoughts on this? How are you using the numbers to make assessments and clinician decisions?

8 STEPS TO BUILD VERBAL IMITATION • If a child is not yet talking, the first thing I try is to see if they will imitate actions by clapping or repeating my actions with a simple cause and effect toy!

Many parents think their child is in speech therapy to learn to talk. So if you are working on imitating movements, explain WHY. Parent involvement and carryover at home is critical for this stage.

1️⃣ Imitates actions with objects
2️⃣ Imitates communicative gestures – waving, pointing, clapping, signs
3️⃣ Imitates nonverbal actions with face and mouth - sticking out tongue
4️⃣ Imitates vocalizations - sneezing, coughing, blowing raspberries
5️⃣ Imitates exclamatory words – “uh oh”, “ow”, “oops”, “vroom”
6️⃣ Verbal routines – ready, set, go; songs
7️⃣ Imitates functional single words
8️⃣ Imitates short phrases

It is important to note that there is no strict hierarchy for addressing language therapy and there are no ages attached to these steps. This hierarchy is a general rule of thumb and allows us to see the big picture and prioritize what to target. Don’t view the hierarchy as a skill to discretely work on before moving on to the next skill. For example, gestalt language processors and AAC users may develop these skills in different steps!
