In order to do so, they are compared to a control group of children with Typical Development (TD). To this end, the Metapragmatic Consciousness Assessment Test (CMP, for its acronym in Spanish) is used. The results show that children with SLI have epipragmatic behaviour in all age ranges studied. In contrast, children with ADD, as they age, develop similarly to the control group, achieving metapragmatic behaviours in most test items. As for the different types of exercises that make up the CMP test, a significant difference is observed in the dialogue item between the SLI and TD groups. The aforementioned result/evidence shows that not all items present the same level of difficulty for the assessed children.esacceso abiertoLanguage And LinguisticsLinguistics And Languagearticle
