Miguel Lázaro et al., « Validation of a scale for a nonword repetition task to assess lexical development », Anales de Psicología, ID : 10670/1.4whgh2
"t has been demonstrated that the ability to repeat non - words is a good marker of lexical development in a number of languages, including Spanish. In addition, the abil ity to repeat nonwords has been used as a good discriminator between typically developing children and children with language delays or other language difficulties. However, despite its potential usefulness for clinical and research purposes, there is no v alidat- ed scale in Spanish. To address this situation, we present a scale based on a sample of 342 monolingual Spanish - speaking children aged from four to seven years. After data analysis, a scale was elaborated to provide popula- tional references for collea gues working in educational, clinical and re- search fields. The results show a ceiling effect for six years olds, as well as for monomorphemic and bisyllabic items. Implications of these scores are discussed in the corresponding section."
