The Use of a Pragmatic Protocol with Normal Preschool Children.

Klecan-Aker, Joan S.; Swank, Paul R.

Journal of Communication Disorders, v21 n1 p85-102 Feb 1988

The study investigated the effectiveness of a pragmatic language function protocol with a sample of 240 normal preschool children, aged 2-5, in a structured setting. The protocol was shown to be used reliably and was sensitive to differences in the mastery of language skills of normal children of different ages. (Author/JDD)
