Receptive and expressive language testing includes non-speech motor functions, speech motor functions, articulation and phonological performance, and language performance.  Children will be evaluated for posture, fine movement, oral movement coordination, mouth posture, chewing, speech attempts, fluency, amount of verbal output, sound repertoire, reluctance to speak, and interactive abilities. Another important measure is the child’s hearing abilities.  

Some parents of children with autism report unusual auditory response.  An auditory assessment will include a hearing test to check for abnormalities or conditions.
