eIMP is transforming assessment of infant vocal development

The eIMP is the online version of the Infant Monitor of vocal Production (IMP). The IMP:

• is for use by early intervention professionals who are supporting parents and infants.
• is an education tool that helps parents understand the nature and pace of their infant’s vocal progress toward speech, birth to 12 months of age.
• is an assessment that clinically monitors the vocal development of infants diagnosed with hearing loss, or at risk for speech delay due to other concerns.
• is presented in a conversation with parents about their infant’s current vocal ability.
