Question: 1 / 400

For a student who is nonverbal, which test would NOT be appropriate for assessing language skills?

PPVT

The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test (PPVT) is designed to assess an individual's understanding of spoken words and the ability to match them with pictures. For a nonverbal student, this test would not be suitable, as it relies heavily on verbal instruction and requires the ability to respond verbally, even if just by pointing to a picture.

In contrast, tests like the UNIT (Universal Nonverbal Intelligence Test) and the Leiter International Performance Scale focus on nonverbal reasoning and abilities, making them more appropriate for nonverbal assessment. Similarly, Raven's Progressive Matrices assess nonverbal abstract reasoning and problem-solving abilities without requiring verbal responses. Thus, these options would be more fitting for evaluating the skills of a nonverbal student.
