SEMANTIC ABILITIES PREDICT EXPRESSIVE LEXICON IN CHILDREN WITH TYPICAL AND ATYPICAL LANGUAGE DEVELOPMENT
In this study we used a semantic battery assessing the conceptual, lexical, and
metacognitive level in semantic relationships to predict expressive lexicon in preschool
children with typical and atypical language development. Our regression analyses showed
that the tests of our semantic battery altogether accounted for 24% of variance
in expressive lexicon after controlling for age and phonological short-term memory. The
ability to memorize picture-cue/word pairs that were linked by taxonomic relations
made a unique contribution to the expressive lexicon, and was a reliable marker of delayed
expressive vocabulary in a group of children with specific language impairment
