Parental report instruments are a non-invasive way to assess children's language development and have proved to give both valid and reliable results when used with children under the age of 2;6 (and in some cases up to 3). In this study we examine the newly developed Norwegian edition of a language assessment tool for older preschoolers: (CDI-III), investigating whether this parental report tool can be used for assessing the language of monolingual Norwegian-speaking children between 2;6 and 4 years. NCDI-III results for 100 children between 2;6 and 4.0 are presented. All sections were significantly intercorrelated. All sections except showed growth with age. Internal consistency was measured both in terms of Cronbach's alpha and corrected item-scale correlation, and the results are discussed considering features of item difficulty distribution. Methodological considerations are discussed, as well as implications relevant both for possible later revisions and for CDI-III adaptations to new languages.
家长报告工具是评估儿童语言发展的一种非侵入性方法，并且已证明在用于2岁6个月以下（某些情况下可达3岁）的儿童时，能给出有效且可靠的结果。在本研究中，我们考察了一种针对年龄较大的学龄前儿童新开发的挪威语版语言评估工具：（儿童语言发展量表第三版），探究这种家长报告工具是否可用于评估2岁6个月至4岁的单语挪威语儿童的语言能力。呈现了100名年龄在2岁6个月至4.0岁之间儿童的儿童语言发展量表第三版的结果。所有部分之间都存在显著的相互关联。除了[此处缺失具体内容]外，所有部分都随年龄增长。通过克朗巴哈系数和校正后的项目-量表相关性来衡量内部一致性，并结合项目难度分布的特征对结果进行了讨论。讨论了方法学上的考虑因素，以及对可能的后续修订和儿童语言发展量表第三版对新语言的改编都相关的影响。
