title: Development of language comprehension in preschool children: a picture identification test in the assessment of the comprehension of grammatical structures.
abstract: A language comprehension test based on picture identification was administered to 180 normal children aged between 3 1/2 and 6 years. Of the 20 test items 11 correlated with age and with the development of linguistic abilities. The test is sufficiently discriminant in respect of comprehension of morphological-syntactic structures between the ages of 4 and 6 years.
