Abstract: | Several accounts of specific language impairment (SLI) in children have appeared in the recent literature. One of the most explicit is that of Locke. The purpose of the present investigation was to evaluate some of the details of Locke's proposal. In the first of two studies, it was found that children with SLI who were limited to single-word utterances showed deficits in their lexical comprehension. In the second study, a number of children with SLI who had reached the grammatical stage of development showed age-appropriate levels of lexical comprehension. Although the first of these findings was in keeping with Locke's account, the second was not. Additional provisions for this proposal are suggested. |
