两个类似的照顾者/家长报告措施的有效性研究谁是学习英语和西班牙语的幼儿早期语言发展。使用麦克阿瑟沟通发展量表:单词句子(CDI; Fenson等人,1994年)和《通信能力发展的发明:口头和书面报告》(IDHC; Jackson-Maldonado,Bates,&塔尔,1992年)。分数与英语和西班牙语的类似实验室测量结果显著相关,包括真实物体命名任务和自由游戏期间的自发语言使用。研究结果提供的证据表明,CDI和IDHC提供了有效的评估早期语言里程碑在年轻的英语和西班牙语儿童。还讨论了可能影响这些工具用于这一人群的有效性的因素。
The validity of two analogous caregiver/parent report measures of early language development in young children who are learning both English and Spanish is examined. Caregiver/parent report indices of vocabulary production and grammar were obtained for 26 children using the MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory: Words Sentences (CDI; Fenson et al., 1994) and the Inventario del Desarrollo de Habilidades Comunicativas: Palabras y Enunciados (IDHC; Jackson-Maldonado, Bates, & Thal, 1992). Scores were significantly correlated with analogous laboratory measures in both English and Spanish, including a real-object naming task and spontaneous language use during free-play. The findings offer evidence that the CDI and IDHC provide valid assessments of early language milestones in young English- and Spanish-speaking children. Factors that may influence the validity of these tools for use with this population are also discussed.
