Improving Equitable and Culturally Sensitive Practices for Bahamian Creole English Speakers: Identifying Children's Typical Morphosyntactic Productions Through Language Sampling

Language sampling tasks are culturally sensitive measures for evaluating language development. For preschool-age children, conversational language samples may provide an optimal language sample context for children to produce morphosyntactic constructions in their natural language. Future research should evaluate the utility of conversational language samples for identifying at-risk status for developmental language disorder in BCE-speaking preschool children.

Abstract

Language sampling tasks are culturally sensitive measures for evaluating language development. For preschool-age children, conversational language samples may provide an optimal language sample context for children to produce morphosyntactic constructions in their natural language. Future research should evaluate the utility of conversational language samples for identifying at-risk status for developmental language disorder in BCE-speaking preschool children.
