背景许多儿童在句子理解方面存在特殊语言障碍(SLI)。这些缺陷通常被归因于儿童对句法或句子中包含的词条的理解的局限性。本研究考察了语言外因素在这些儿童句子理解中的作用。目的通过改变所用材料的性质，直接操纵对句子理解的语言外要求。方法与过程45名意大利语儿童参与其中：15名有SLI的儿童(平均年龄=4；5)，15名与年龄匹配的典型发育儿童(TD-A，平均年龄=4；5)，以及15名与语言理解测试成绩相匹配的较小的典型发育儿童(TD-Y，平均年龄=3；9)。结果与结果TD-A儿童的准确率高于TD-Y儿童和SLI儿童，但随着任务要求的增加，所有儿童的准确率均下降。特别是，含有多余形容词的句子(例如，Il topo Bello Copre L‘uccelo allegro，’好老鼠覆盖快乐的鸟‘，其中所有描绘的老鼠都很好，所有的鸟都很开心)的得分高于类似句子中每个形容词都必须与适当的字符联系在一起的句子(例如，Il cance giallo lava il maiale bianco，’黄狗洗白猪‘，其中衬垫包括一只黄狗洗一只粉色猪，一只棕色狗洗一只白猪)。在意大利语中，修饰宾语的形容词出现在句尾，这可能是受最近效应的影响。结论与含义即使在控制词汇内容、句法结构和句子长度的情况下，条件之间的差异也是存在的。这一发现表明，在评估儿童对句子的理解时，需要非常小心。相同的句法结构和词汇内容的难度可以根据与目标画面结合使用的箔片的数量和类型而有所不同。
BackgroundMany children with specific language impairment (SLI) in sentence comprehension. These deficits are usually attributed to limitations in the children's understanding of syntax or the lexical items contained in the sentences. This study examines the role that extra‐linguistic factors can play in these children's sentence comprehension.AimsExtra‐linguistic demands on sentence comprehension are manipulated directly by varying the nature of the materials used.Methods & ProceduresForty‐five Italian‐speaking children participated: 15 with SLI (mean age = 4;5), 15 typically developing children matched for age (TD‐A, mean age = 4;5), and 15 younger typically developing children matched according to language comprehension test scores (TD‐Y, mean age = 3;9). The children responded to sentence comprehension items that varied in their length and/or the number and type of foils that competed with the target picture.Outcomes & ResultsThe TD‐A children were more accurate than the TD‐Y children and the children with SLI, but, for all groups, accuracy declined when task demands increased. In particular, sentences containing superfluous adjectives (e.g.,Il topo bello copre l'uccello allegro, ‘The nice mouse covers the happy bird’ where all depicted mice were nice and all birds were happy) yielded higher scores than similar sentences in which each adjective had to be associated with the proper character (e.g.,Il cane giallo lava il maiale bianco, ‘The yellow dog washes the white pig’, where foils included a yellow dog washing a pink pig, and a brown dog washing a white pig). Many errors reflected recency effects, probably influenced by the fact that adjectives modifying the object appear at the end of the sentence in Italian.Conclusions & ImplicationsDifferences between conditions were observed even when lexical content, syntactic structure and sentence length were controlled. This finding suggests the need for great care when assessing children's comprehension of sentences. The same syntactic structure and lexical content can vary in difficulty depending on the number and types of foils used in combination with the target picture.
