Puppet Sentence Completion Task (PSCT)

Le résumé fourni par la source

This chapter shows that the puppet sentence completion task (PSCT) was developed to make the traditional child SCT more appropriate for preschool-age children. The PSCT as first described was designed for use with a general preschool-age population. The PSCT can be used with children from 3 to 7 years old. These ages are approximate boundaries given the individual differences of children in the preschool- and early school-age years. Although there are certainly 2. 5-year-old-children who would be able to complete the PSCT, the average child would not have verbal skills sufficient for the task before the age of 3 years. With the exception of age considerations, there are no limitations on the use of the PSCT. A child with a mental age below 3 years, regardless of chronological age, would probably be unable to complete the PSCT. The PSCT was first introduced as a way to utilize a more traditional sentence completion task in a developmentally appropriate way.
