Abstract

Background: Vocabulary is an essential component in child and individual communication performance. This ability is an indicator of language problems or disorders that may be experienced. Measuring receptive and expressive vocabulary areas is necessary to value the children’s abilities comprehensively. The provision of a vocabulary problem-examining instrument is a condition needing immediate investigation. This research aims to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Functional Vocabulary Ability Measurement instrument.   Methods: This study was quantitative research. Forty (40) respondents were involved in this research with varying language problem backgrounds. The instrument trial involved clinicians with speech therapist and non-therapist backgrounds. The test-retest method was used to analyze the reliability of the instrument.   Results: The result of the validity test shows a rho value for receptive and expressive vocabulary subtests with a total value > 0.800 at a significance level ≤ 0.001. The reliability value of Cronbach’s alpha test result is 0.980 for receptive vocabulary and 0.986 for expressive vocabulary components, for a total value of 0.991. The relation of the test-retest result indicates that the value of relation in the first and second measurements is 0.93 for receptive vocabulary, 0.945 for expressive vocabulary components, and a total value of 0.936.   Conclusion: This research instrument has qualified validity and reliability values. Clinicians can use this instrument as one option in the child's vocabulary ability assessment process. Further research is necessary to see the impact of the instrument more broadly.

Abstract

Background: Mean Length Utterance (MLU) results from dividing the total morphemes by the child’s number of utterances. MLU is an indicator of gross language development in children. The more the vocabulary the higher will be the development of language acquisition and so will be the MLU score and the more complex will be the sentence structure so that language development can be known, especially grammatical aspects including syntax and morphology. Syntactic complexity is the range of sentence complexity levels based on its syntactic structural components. This study aims to determine whether or not there is an effect of Mean Length Utterance (MLU) on the complexity of the syntactic structure of children 4-6 years old in Demakan Village.  Methods: This study used a quantitative method, correlational design and cross sectional approach. The populations in this study were children aged 4-6 years in TK Desa Demakan 01 and Klinik Belajar Bahasa Bicara Sukoharjo. Sampling was conducted using purposive sampling with 30 children. 15 children aged 4 years, 9 children 5 years old, and 6 children 6 years old. This study conducted in November 2022 until Februari 2023. The spontaneous language sampling analysis used to measure MLU and syntactic complexity.  Results: The results of the statistical correlation test using Spearman-Rank analysis obtained a p value of 0.001 (p <0.05) meaning that Ha is supported or there is an effect of MLU on the complexity of the syntactic structure of children 4-6 years in Demakan Village. The r value of 0.644 implies that there is a "strong" effect with a positive correlation.  Conclusion: There is an effect of the Mean Length Utterance (MLU) on the Complexity of the Syntactic Structure in 4-6 Year Children in Demakan Village. This correlation usefull to make conclusion of assessment process especially relation between language variables.

Abstract

Reading requires cognitive skills such as working memory and requires metalinguistic awareness. In metalinguistic awareness we can distinguish the structure and meaning contained in a word or sentence. This study aims to determine whether working memory and metalinguistic awareness in grade 2 elementary school students in Surakarta can be related. Sampling used multistage sampling technique with a total of 60 respondents. The research technique used quantitative data analysis and the data collection process used meaningful, meaningless word reading materials, and metalinguistic awareness questions. The data were processed using the Spearman rank test with the results that the metalinguistic relationship with meaningful word reading time obtained a value of p 0.000, on the accuracy of reading meaningful words obtained a value of p 0.000, on the fluency of reading meaningful words obtained a value of p 0.000, on the time of reading meaningless words obtained a value of p 0.007, on the accuracy of reading meaningless words obtained a value of p 0.013, on the fluency of reading meaningless words obtained a value of p 0.007. The results showed that p<0.05 means that working memory with metalinguistics in grade 2 elementary school students in Surakarta can be said to be related.
