Peer reviewedGutierrez-Clellen, Vera F.; DeCurtis, Lisa – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 1999
This study compared word definition skills of 8 Spanish-speaking children with and 9 without language impairments (LI) (all aged 9). Children without LI tended to use formal definitions, while children with LI exhibited fewer formal definitions and appeared to show a limited use of their syntactic knowledge in their word definitions.
