Sentence repetition tasks have been widely used in the last years as a diagnostic tool in developmental language disorders. However in Spanish there are few (if any) of these instruments, especially for younger children. In this context, we develop a new Sentence Repetition Task for assessing language (morphosyntactic) abilities of very young Spanish children. A list of 33 sentences of different length and complexity was created and included in the task. A total of 130 typical developing children from 2 to 4 years of age were engaged in a play situation and asked to repeat the sentences. Children’s answers were scored for accuracy at sentence and word level and error analysis at the word level was undertaken. Besides a subsample of 92 children completed a non-word repetition task. First results show its adequacy to children from 2 to 4 years of age, its capacity to discriminate between different developmental levels, and its concurrent validity with the nonword repetition task.

西班牙语早期语言评估的句子重复任务

句子重复任务在过去几年被广泛用作发育性语言障碍的诊断工具。然而，在西班牙语中，这些乐器很少（如果有的话），尤其是对于年幼的孩子。在这种情况下，我们开发了一项新的句子重复任务，用于评估非常年幼的西班牙儿童的语言（形态句法）能力。创建了一个包含 33 个不同长度和复杂性的句子的列表并将其包含在任务中。共有 130 名 2 至 4 岁的典型发育儿童参与游戏情境并要求重复句子。对儿童的答案在句子和单词级别的准确性进行评分，并在单词级别进行错误分析。此外，92 名儿童的子样本完成了非单词重复任务。
