Super Duper Chronological Age Calculator
Super Duper Publications tests are normed by exact chronological age, written out in full years, months, and days, not squeezed into compact notation. Enter the client’s date of birth and the actual test date below.
How to Use It for Super Duper Materials
- Enter the client’s date of birth, then the date you administered the test, not today’s date, unless they’re the same day.
- Retrospective scoring is common when protocols are scored days after administration. Use the test-administration date field for the original test date, not the scoring date.
- The same output format works across Pro-Ed, WPS, and Academic Therapy Publications protocols, not just Super Duper.
Why the Test Date Matters
Screening and articulation materials from Super Duper select norms by the client’s exact age on the day of testing. If a report is written a week or two after the actual session, using the write-up date instead of the test date can shift the calculated age, and with it, the norm band the score gets compared against.
Does this work for other SLP screening tools, not just Super Duper?
Yes. The same years-months-days output is used by Pro-Ed, WPS, and Academic Therapy Publications materials.
What if I’m scoring a protocol days after the actual test?
Use the original test date in the “Date Test Was Administered” field, not the date you’re filling in the paperwork.
Is this a different calculator from your other tools?
Yes. This one spells out years, months, and days in full rather than compact notation, matching how Super Duper protocols are written. For Pearson’s Y;M;D notation, see our Pearson calculator.
