Exploring Sentence Level Difficulties in Children with Specific Language Impairment (SLI)

Psycholinguistic profiling of children with SLI using speech and single word processing models has yielded promising results in the assessment and remediation of phonological, semantic and literacy difficulties. Children with SLI can have problems with sentence comprehension and production. This theoretical paper outlines a rationale for applying Garrett’s (1980, 1982, 1988) model of sentence processing to understand their difficulties, with particular reference to the message (conceptual/inferential level), functional (content items-verb and its arguments) and positional levels (word forms and sentence frame) and predicts examples of the types of errors made by children with SLI at the different levels of the model with reference to relevant research literature.
