AB - [Purpose] This study investigated the narrative writing abilities of second-grade children with vocabulary delay. Writing compositions were analyzed using rating scale for overall writing quality as well as vocabulary and morphosyntactx. [Method] Fifteen children with vocabulary delay and 17 typically developing children participated in this study. All participants scored at or above 85 on a nonverbal intelligence test, and the word decoding test of the KOLRA ensuring they had no difficulty reading the writing task. Children with vocabulary delay were identified as those scoring below the 10th percentile on the receptive vocabulary test of REVT, while typically developing children scored at or above 20th percentile. [Results] The results showed that children with vocabulary delay scored significantly lower than their peers in sentence completeness, syntax, grammar, spelling, and cohesion of the K-CELF-5 writing index. Additionally, these children obtained significantly lower scores on NDW, TNW, T-unit, MLT-unit, and clausal density compared to typically developing children.
[Conclusion] Vocabulary knowledge is a sensitive indicator of writing quality in children. The finding demonstrated that children with vocabulary delay exhibit poor vocabulary usage, frequent grammatical errors, short and simple sentences, and frequent spelling errors. These results suggest that vocabulary delay may require focused evaluation and appropriate instruction in writing from early stage of writing development.
