Résumé
Le but de cet article est d’explorer le développement des habiletés langagières en comparant la performance lors d’une anecdote personnelle à celle de 25 énoncés en conversation lors d’un jeu symbolique. Des 28 enfants franco-québécois unilingues évalués à 3 ans, 19 ont également été évalués à 4 ans. La longueur moyenne des énoncés et la diversité lexicale des échantillons ont été calculées et le stade narratif de l’anecdote a été déterminé. Les résultats montrent un impact du contexte discursif sur les caractéristiques de l’échantillon. La longueur moyenne des énoncés est statistiquement plus élevée en narration à 3 ans seulement. Utiliser l’anecdote personnelle pour évaluer le langage d’enfants de 3 ans est envisageable, malgré une évolution très variable du stade narratif.

Abstract
This article aims to explore language development abilities by comparing a personal narrative with a sample of 25 utterances extracted from a a conversation during symbolic play. From the 28 French-speaking unilingual children assessed at age 3, 19 were also assessed at age 4. Mean length of the utterance and lexical diversity of the language samples were calculated and the personal narrative structure was identified. The results show an impact of discourse on the sample’s characteristics. Statement mean length is statistically higher in narration at age 3 only. Despite the high variability of the narrative structure’s evolution, the use of personal narrative to assess language from age 3 is conceivable.
Keywords:
- discourse,
- assessment,
- mean length of utterances,
