“…Researchers have used IPSyn to assess children representing a broad range of ages, dialects, languages, and disorders (Hewitt et al, 2005;Hollister et al, 2015;Komesidou et al, 2017;Moody et al, 2018;Oetting et al, 2010;Rescorla et al, 2001;Rice et al, 2006;Thal et al, 2004;Yoder et al, 2011). For example, Komesidou et al (2017) examined language growth of 39 children with fragile X syndrome over a 5-year period when the children were between 32 and 121 months of age.…”

Purpose Conducting in-depth grammatical analyses based on language samples can be time consuming. Developmental Sentence Scoring (DSS) and the Index of Productive Syntax (IPSyn) analyses provide detailed information regarding the grammatical profiles of children and can be conducted using free computer-based software. Here, we provide a tutorial to support clinicians' use of computer-based analyses to aid diagnosis and develop and monitor treatment goals. Method We analyzed language samples of a 5-year-old with developmental language disorder and an adolescent with Down syndrome using computer-based software, Computerized Language Analysis. We focused on DSS and IPSyn analyses. The tutorial includes step-by-step procedures for conducting the analyses. We also illustrate how the analyses may be used to assist in diagnosis, develop treatment goals focused on grammatical targets, and monitor progress on these treatment goals. Conclusion Clinicians should consider using Computerized Language Analysis's IPSyn and DSS analyses to support grammatical language assessments used to aid diagnosis, develop treatment goals, and monitor progress on these treatment goals.
