Peer reviewedJohnston, Judith R.; Smith, Linda B. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, 1989
Ten language impaired and 10 language normal children, aged 3-5), were asked to solve verbal and nonverbal problems requiring color and size judgments. There were no group differences on the verbal tasks, but the language impaired children performed less well on the nonverbal tasks especially on problems dealing with size. (Author/DB)
