BRAIN INJURY
• compare individual performance over time toward desired outcomes. • identify ways that AAC support team members can define and coordinate their roles for intervention and instruction programs. • identify and provide optimal learning environments. Originally developed for use with children who use speech-generating systems, the AAC Profile is appropriate for use with adults who do not have acquired communica- tion disorders and who use AAC systems. The profile is not specific to a disorder, severity, or setting. SUBTESTS Assessment items are divided hierarchically into ability-based levels called Skill Set Levels in four Areas of Learning. Skill Set Levels range from simple and early function- ing to independent use and AAC system mastery. These areas are adapted from the work of Janice Light (1989). OPERATIONAL AREA OF LEARNING Assess the development of the technical skills used to operate the AAC system, includ- ing the ability to access the system to transmit information. LINGUISTIC AREA OF LEARNING Assess the development of receptive and expressive language skills used in the home and community, knowledge and use of the language “code” of the AAC system, and the ability to attend to both during a communicative interaction. SOCIAL AREA OF LEARNING Assess development of the skills needed for social communication, including those pertaining to the individual’s self-image as a communicator and his or her desire to communicate reciprocally with others. STRATEGIC AREA OF LEARNING Assess knowledge of what can be communicated and how best to communicate it, as well as fostering compensatory strategies for effective communication.

The MIRBI‑2 was normed on 128 right-brain‑injured people. Reliability was estimated by coefficient alpha (.84). All item discrimination coefficients exceeded .3 accept- able levels and ranged from .37 to .81 (median: .57). Interrater reliability was .99. Concurrent validity was very good and included the study of left-brain‑injured partici- pants and control participants without brain injury. Complete MIRBI‑2 Kit includes: Examiner’s Manual, 25 Examiner Record Booklets, 25 Response Forms, and 25 Response Sheets, all in a sturdy storage box. (©2000)
