vocabulary test for Spanish-speaking children

[Barbara Pearson]

Dear Ludovica,

Not that I'm recommending it, but I believe the TVIP was originally  
normed in Spain.  The version we typically use in the U.S. is the  
"edicion hispanoamericana"--so by a process of retronymity (?) the  
original was the "peninsular" edition.  I wonder if it is still  
available.... Should be, at least from the publisher/author.  If you  
find it, you will probably want to do a concurrent validity check on  
it, even with some home-made tool.

I look forward to hearing about other alternatives.

Cheers,

Barbara Pearson
