Communication Activities of Daily Living (CADL-2)

Communication Activities of Daily Living, Second Edition (CADL-2) assesses the functional communication skills of adults with neurogenic communication disorders.

The CADL-2 is given individually in about 30 minutes and contains 50 test items that assess communication activities in seven areas: Reading, writing, and using numbers; Social interaction; Divergent communication; Contextual communication; Nonverbal communication; Sequential relationships; and Humor/metaphor/absurdity. Original CADL items that required role playing, use of an audiocassette for identification of environmental sounds, and certain props were eliminated to ease test administration and reduce total test time.

Complete CADL-2 Kit includes: Examiner’s Manual, Picture Book, 25 Examiner Record Booklets, and 25 Patient Response Forms, all in a sturdy storage box. (1999)
