Sauzeon, H.; Lestage, P.; Raboutet, C.; N'Kaoua, B.; Claverie, B. – Brain and Language, 2004
Developmental changes in children's verbal fluency were explored in this study. One hundred and forty children aged from 7 to 16 completed four verbal fluency tasks, each with a different the production criterion (letter, sound, semantic, and free). The age differences were analyzed both in terms of number of words produced, and clustering,…
