Watkins, Ruth V.; Rice, Mabel L.
Journal of Speech and Hearing Research, v34 n5 p1130-41 Oct 1991
This study examined the acquisition of verb particles and prepositions in language-impaired, language-matched, and age-matched preschool children (total n=42). Results indicated that the use of verb particles constituted a particularly challenging task for the language-impaired subjects relative to both the age-matched and language-matched peers.
