- Title
A Preliminary Psycholinguistic Study of Children with Learning Disabilities.
- Authors
Rosenthal, Joseph H.
- Abstract
Linguistic competence was tested and evaluated in five children who had a definitive diagnosis of minimal brain dysfunction, and in three control children whose physical, neurological, and school functions were well within normal limits. Definitive differences between the two groups were noted in sentence completion and especially in the ability to formulate sentences of negation. Repetition was found to be a useful tool for testing linguistic competence of both normal and neurologically malfunctioning children.
