The Production of Emphatic Stress Test in the Right Hemisphere Language Battery is revised for the Korean version to elicit prosodic prominence more effectively using corrective focus. The mean score obtained by 80 Korean speakers without language disorders was 4.88 (±0.33) for the revised subtest and 4.56 (±0.67) for the subtest in its original format out of 5 points for each. The variety of the speakers’ responses in the current study anticipates the intricacy of assessing prosody for clinical evaluation.
