Sentence Comprehension in children with developmental language disorders.

Original language description

Purpose: Language comprehension is vital to social and educational development. Difficulties in sentencecomprehension can be detected in most children with developmental language disorders (DLD) usingage-appropriate instruments with high sensitivity. There are two main theoretical frameworks for thecharacterization of difficulties in language acquisition in children with (DLD): linguistic-based andcognitive-based theories. The aim of this study is a comparison of language comprehension in childrenwith developmental language disorder (DLD) and children with typical language development (TLD).Two types of tests referred to as main theoretical frameworks have been used (Token test andTEPO - Sentence Comprehension Test). Sample: We studied 101 children aged 4,3-6,9 years with (DLD)and typically developing peers (TLD). Data collection took place in the period 2021-2023. Method: It isquantitative research. A total of 47 children with (DLD) were compared with 54 children with (TLD) intwo comprehension tests. The research goals were set as follows: 1) Correlation of TEPO test and Tokentest using Spearman´s correlation coefficient; 2) Comparison of homogeneity of test results in TLD andDLD children using Stuart–Maxwell test; 3) Determination of the sensitivity and specificity of both tests.Results: There is a high dependence between the two tests, indicating a high level of correlation, with= 0.81 in the whole research sample. There was a statistically significant difference (p &lt; 0.001) betweenthe test results based on percentile rank scores. The non-parametric unpaired Stuart-Maxwell test wasused. The TEPO test has high sensitivity (95,7%) and the Token test has high specificity (90,7%).Discussion: Both comprehension tests have several advantages in terms of their characteristics, and theyalso have some limitations. The research results provide more information about the differences betweenthe two testing methods and explain how the test results can be used in education.
