“…The LEESPQ focuses on reflexive behavior, precanonical vocalizations, canonical vocalizations, and postcanonical vocalizations in children up to 18 months old. 4 The questions cover the following speech production steps: production of reflexive sounds, expression of well-being, vowel production similar to adults, second babbling phase, word-like utterances, sound-object association, and production of first words. To date, the LEESPQ has been validated in German on 362 children with normal hearing (NH), 5 in Turkish on 222 children with NH, 6 and in one English version in Canada on 90 children with NH.…”
