			<p>The EVT&trade;-2 is a measure of expressive vocabulary and word retrieval for Standard American English. Developed over a five-year period, the EVT&trade;-2 test was co-normed along with the PPVT&trade;-4 test based on a national sample of individuals ranging in age from 2:6&ndash;90+.</p>

			<h3>Scoring Subscriptions</h3>

			<p>Each scoring subscription is per user and will begin on the date the first subscription from the order is allocated to the user(s) in the Q-global account. After you place an order, you will receive an email informing you that your ​E​VT-​2​ digital Manual, Stimulus Book, and/or scoring are available on the Q-global platform.</p>

			<h3>Benefits</h3>

			<ul>
				<li>Assess expressive vocabulary quickly with a test that requires no reading or writing.</li>
				<li>Evaluate English Language Learners&rsquo; (ELL) vocabulary acquisition as a flexible measure of their English word knowledge.</li>
				<li>Make comparisons with receptive vocabulary to pinpoint a student&rsquo;s strengths/weaknesses and identify potential word retrieval concerns.</li>
				<li>Move immediately into evidence-based interventions using those embedded directly into and linked into the scoring and reporting software.</li>
				<li>Assess oral expression as a foundation of writing skills.</li>
				<li>Measure progress using one or both parallel forms.</li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Features</h3>

			<p>The EVT-2 supplies two equivalent forms of the test with different vocabulary items to ensure the individual has not &ldquo;learned&rdquo; the test.</p>

			<ul>
				<li>Two parallel forms for easier progress monitoring.</li>
				<li>Identical administration and scoring procedures to the EVT.</li>
				<li>Broader and more mixed use of labeling and synonym item types.</li>
				<li>Five levels of diagnostic analysis.</li>
				<li>New Growth Scale Value (GSV) for measuring progress over time.</li>
				<li>Newly designed, flexible carrying case.</li>
			</ul>

			<h3>Sample Reports</h3>

			<p>The following sample reports are available EVT2.&nbsp;</p>

			<p>Score Summary: Includes the individual&rsquo;s current scores, a narrative report, a diagnostic analysis of item-level performance, and a separate Suggested Interventions Report.</p>

			<p>Diagnostic Analysis: Presents item-level performance classified by part of speech.</p>

			<p>Progress Report: Tracks repeat administrations and helps monitor an individual&rsquo;s improvement over time using the new Growth Scale Value (GSV).</p>

			<p>Receptive-Expressive Comparison Report: Compares the student&rsquo;s receptive and expressive vocabulary when administering both the EVT-2 and PPVT-4 tests, and analyzes item performance in multiple ways to enhance intervention.</p>
