A modified cloze procedure as a test of comprehension and expression in adolescents
Abstract:
An auditorily presented cloze procedure was used as a test of auditory comprehension and expression of language in learning disabled (LD) and regular classroom adolescents. Three sentence types of increasing linguistic complexity and five standard grammatical operations were employed in constructing the stimulus paragraph. Subjects responded by providing the deleted function words necessary to sentence type and grammatical operation. Results indicated that LD adolescents demonstrate quantitative and qualitative language differences as compared to regular classroom adolescents in completing the cloze task.
