LITMUS

Cross-Linguistic
Lexical Tasks

 

What are CLTs?


 

CLT are picture-choice and picture-naming tasks that assess the comprehension and production of nouns and verbs via four subtasks. Each of the four subtasks consists of 32 items. Typically CLT is used in studies of multilingual and monolingual children aged between 3 and 7 years. CLT is currently available in 38 languages and in the form of a mobile app for iPads and Android tablets.

Each language version of CLT was developed according to the same procedure and criteria. Therefore for cross-linguistic comparison, CLT is not translated but constructed for each language separately. The rules of CLT construction are based on words’ semantics, age of acquisition, and phonological and morphological complexity.

CLT are a part of the Language Impairment Testing in Multilingual Settings (LITMUS) battery and were originally developed in COST Action IS0804 (2010–2013) ‘Language Impairment in a Multilingual Society: Linguistic Patterns and the Road to Assessment’ (www.bi-sli.org).

How CLTs are constructed?

Each CLT language version was developed according to the same set of criteria. The selection of target words in each language is based on two main measures of word difficulty: subjective age of acquisition of words and complexity index that takes into account the phonological and morphological properties of words. Additionally, while developing a CLT version we control for naming agreement of the pictures. When a CLT version is ready, it may be incorporated into the mobile app.

Detailed information

CLT have been developed in cooperation with over 40 institutions
the post-doc position (2020-2026) is funded within the Excellence Initiative – Research University (IDUB) programme by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education; We acknowledge previous and current financial support from: COST Action IS0804 (2010-2013); Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (2010-2015); National Science Center in Poland; The Kościuszko Foundation (2015), Visegrad Fund (2015-2016); Faculty of Psychology University of Warsaw (2013-2016, 2020-2024)
since 2010

1. Naming study

Aim: To prepare the list of candidate words in the language.

Description: Adult native speakers of the target language name the pictures selected from the set of over 500 CLT pictures. The pictures are freely available for research: https://osf.io/y2cwr/.

Result: The most widely shared names given to the pictures compose the list of candidate words used in the next steps. The target words are later selected from the names.

Publications: Polish norms for the picture base have been published by Wolna et al., 2023.

2. AoA study

Aim: To estimate words’ difficulty (based on the speakers’ intuitions).

Description: For each of the candidate words, native speakers of the target language answer the question: When did you learn the word ‘X’? The ratings provided by the native speakers are then averaged and used as a measure of words’ difficulty.

Result: The average rating for each word will be used as one of the difficulty measures.

Publications: The AoA ratings have been published in 32 languages: Łuniewska et al., 2016 and Łuniewska et al., 2019

3. Complexity assessment

Aim: To estimate words’ difficulty.

Description: A linguist who speaks the target language provides detailed information about the phonological and morphological characteristics of the words. The complexity index is calculated based on this information.

Result: The computed complexity index will be used as the second measure of words’ difficulty.

4. Construction

Aim: To construct the CLT.

Description: The target words for comprehension and production subtasks are selected on the basis of the words’ age of acquisition and complexity according to the cross-linguistic rules. The CLT should include early and later words of various complexity.

Result: A pilot version of CLT in the target language is ready for a pilot study!

5. Pilot study

Aim: To revise the pilot version of the CLT.

Description: At least 10 monolingual children (typically five-year-olds) are tested with the pilot version of CLT. The items that are poorly recognized or named by children are later revised.

Result: The final version of CLT is ready to be used in research!

6. App version

Aim: To prepare the mobile app version of the CLT.

Description: The recording of questions and batch files are incorporated into the Child Lexicon CLT app.

Result: The new language is added to the app available from the App Store and Google Play.
