To determine vocabulary and lexical selectivity characteristics of children with and without repaired cleft palate at 24 months of age, based on parent report.
Forty-nine children with repaired cleft palate, with or without cleft lip (CP±L; 25 males; 21 cleft lip and palate, 28 CP only), 29 children with a history of otitis media (OM) and ventilation tubes (21 males), and 25 typically developing (TD) children (13 males).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Parent-reported expressive vocabulary was determined using the MacArthur Communicative Development Inventory: Words and Sentences.
Vocabulary size was reduced for children with repaired CP±L compared to children in the TD group ( = .025) but not the OM group ( = .403). Mean percentage of words beginning with sonorants did not differ across groups ( = .383). Vocabulary size predicted sonorant use for all groups ( = .001).
Children with repaired CP±L exhibit similar lexical selectivity relative to word initial sounds compared to noncleft TD and OM peers at 24 months of age, based on parent report.
基于家长报告，确定 24 个月龄患有和未患有腭裂修复术的儿童的词汇和词汇选择特征。
49 名患有腭裂修复术的儿童，包括唇裂伴腭裂（CP±L；25 名男性；21 名唇裂伴腭裂，28 名单纯腭裂），29 名患有中耳炎（OM）和通气管史的儿童（21 名男性），和 25 名正常发育（TD）儿童（13 名男性）。
使用麦克阿瑟发育沟通词汇量表：词语和句子，通过家长报告来确定表达性词汇量。
与 TD 组相比，患有 CP±L 的儿童的词汇量减少（ =.025），但与 OM 组相比无差异（ =.403）。各组起始辅音的使用百分比无差异（ =.383）。词汇量大小可以预测所有组的辅音使用（ =.001）。
基于家长报告，与非腭裂 TD 和 OM 同龄儿童相比，24 个月龄患有腭裂修复术的儿童在初始音的词汇选择上表现出相似的特征。
