摘要:The goal of this study was to test on a non-francophone population a repetition task of non-words created for a francophone population. A group of heritage language speakers (n = 27) was paired with a group of native speakers of French (n = 27) with a corresponding level of receptive lexical knowledge. The scores of both groups on a task consisting of the repetition of nonwords were compared. An analysis of variance showed that heritage language participants scores were similar to those of native speakers of French, even though their first language was not the one from which the non-words had been formed. The results highlight the potential of using a non-word repetition task with a linguistically heterogeneous population. The findings also suggest that the best measurement of phonological memory may be the number of correct syllables produced, as this may limit the influence of various factors on the task.
