Abstract

This study compared memory abilities in 58, school-age children with and without developmental language disorders (DLD) using traditional and novel measures related to chunking of information in long term memory. Results showed significant differences between the groups for all of the measures, with the exception of clause access for the sentence-level task. Implications for future studies related to intervention are discussed.
