The GFTA-3 Scores tab contains three sections: Sounds-in-Words, Sounds-in-Sentences, and Stimulabilty.
Sounds-in-Words and Sounds-in-Sentences allow raw score or item entry and Stimulability permits item entry only.
For Sounds-in-Words and Sounds-in-Sentences, once a target sound is selected, the image will change to light blue. If an incorrect sound response is chosen, the image will be replaced by the chosen incorrect response and the color will change to light pink.
If NR (no response) is selected all sounds in the word will be replaced with a "-" and the color will change to light pink.
Stimulability will allow responses for each sound in each position, for Syllable, Word and Sentence. Sounds that are not allowed will be indicated with a dark grey box. You should click through to indicate that the response was null, correct (✓) or incorrect (xx) or incorrect then correct after multiple stimulation (x ✓).
Raw score entry is possible with limited report capabilities.
