Project Description
The children in this project participated in a number of tasks over two testing sessions. Most sessions were conducted in homes, although a few took place in a clinical treatment room.
- For the task labeled PNT (picture naming task), participants were asked to name approximately 125 pictures in response to color drawings on a laptop. If a participant was unable to name the picture spontaneously, the experimenter used delayed imitation to elicit the target (i.e., This is a zebra. What is it?). There were two orders.
- For the task labeled NWR (non-word repetition), participants immediately imitated a non-word target. The task was based on Shriberg et al.’s (2009) Syllable Repetition Task, but with two conditions that were pseudo-randomized across task items: stressed and equally-stressed stimuli. There were two orders.
- The final task was a 10-minute play session with the experimenter in order to collect spontaneous speech and language samples. Most sessions involved play-doh.
