Language comprehension processes in children from 3 to 7 years of age: Long-distance morphological agreement
Object and action naming in Italian-speaking children and adults
In the early stages of language development, verbs are usually acquired later than nouns.
In this paper we explore differences between nouns and verbs at a later stage of development, comparing
Italian-speaking children and adults in efficiency of lexical access for object vs. action names
in an on-line (timed) picture-naming paradigm. Name agreement and reaction times were collected
from 5-year-old children and young adults, for 250 black-and-white drawings of common objects and
275 drawings of actions. For object naming, target names (the names given by the majority of participants)
were the same for children and adults on 92% of the items ; for action naming, children and
adults agreed on only 48% of the items. Even for those items on which children and adults produced
the same target name, children showed a significantly greater disadvantage for verbs, as expressed by
reaction times. Factors contributing to these differences are explored in multivariate analyses
