Performance of university students on the Fullerton subtest of idioms.
The study examined the performance of 71 university students on the Fullerton Language Test for Adolescents subtest on Idioms. The subjects were assigned to one of three age categories, and the performances of the groups were compared. The results demonstrated that 51% of the 18-21-year-old group fell within the "Competence Range" for this subtest, while 84% of the 22-29-year-old group and 91% of the 30+ year-old group fell within this range. As chronological age increased, performance improved.
