Parents of each child participant completed the ICS. Naïve listeners orthographically transcribed speech samples from child participants. To control the effect of age, we computed Spearman correlation values between the transcription intelligibility scores and ICS scores stratified by age bands. To estimate the relationship between the transcription intelligibility score and ICS scores across age while controlling the effect of age, we averaged Spearman correlation values across age bands.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Spearman correlations between ICS scores (as composite scores or as individual ICS item scores) and transcription intelligibility scores were generally negligible to low, indicating a weak relationship.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>ICS and transcription intelligibility are complementary measures in giving a holistic picture of how well a child is understood, in shaping an individualized interventional plan and in monitoring progress.</p><p><strong>Supplemental material: </strong>https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.29856173.</p>","PeriodicalId":49240,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology","volume":" ","pages":"2877-2892"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12452820/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144976216","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
