Alliteration (Ages 3-5)

We identified a set of words commonly known by preschoolers and obtained images of these words. Stimulus cards include one image at the top of each card (e.g., rain) and a set of three images in a row at the bottom of each card (e.g., house, rake, pig), one of which starts with the same sound as the target picture. After providing a set of sample items, the examiner asks the child to look at each card and point to one of the three pictures at the bottom of the card with the same initial sound as the fourth, target picture. The task continues for a total of two minutes. The score generated from this format is the number of pictures the child correctly identifies within two minutes.
