Abstract This study aimed to create a measure of the development of communication in preschool children. A questionnaire consisted of 48 items (Ohgami, 2008) was implemented with children aged from 8 to 81 mon...ths. The data from 656 participants was standardized, and the developmental order of each item was clarified. Factor analysis showed that communicative competence over the age of three involved five factors. Moreover, a trial use of the questionnaire suggested that the school-age children with ASD did not pass the items on self-restraint and inferential communication, while they passed the items on self-assertion and knowledge. These results indicated that the five factors could be used as a tool for assessment in children with developmental disorders.show more
