contrast and definition tasks, whereas no significant correlations were found during the
delayed post test (see Appendix 5.32 for correlations).
Key findings from the between and across tasks comparison
Comparison between post tests measurements
• Children’s performance was found to vary by the type of measurement for both post
tests. Best performance was observed first on the multiple choice task and then on the
inference task. Children performed at a lower level on the sentence generation,
definition and naming tasks. Worst performance was observed on the analogy and
lexical contrast tasks.
Are there any correlations between children ,s performance on the naming and the multiple
choice tasks ?
• Children’s performance on the naming task tended to correlate with their performance
on the multiple choice task during the immediate post test. Significant correlations
between the two measures were found during the delayed post test.
Are there any correlations between children ,s performance on the naming and the other
comprehension tasks across testing ?
• Children’s performance on the naming task was significantly correlated with their
performance on the analogy, contrast and definition tasks during the immediate post
test. No significant correlations were found during the delayed post test.
