The purpose of this study was conducted to investigate the early writing development of Chinese first grade children in Taiwan. One hundred Chinese first-grade normal children were asked to write a story using the Picture Story Language Test (Mykelebust, 1965), and also to complete a 10-word copying task. Their copying samples were analyzed for handwriting errors. The spontaneous writing samples were analyzed for productivity, syntax, level of abstraction, vocabulary, and handwriting error.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a The purpose of this study was conducted to investigate the early writing development of Chinese first grade children in Taiwan. One hundred Chinese first-grade normal children were asked to write a story using the Picture Story Language Test (Mykelebust, 1965), and also to complete a 10-word copying task. Their copying samples were analyzed for handwriting errors. The spontaneous writing samples were analyzed for productivity, syntax, level of abstraction, vocabulary, and handwriting error.
520 $a The results indicated a considerable amount of variability among the Chinese first graders on all measures. When compared with a similar group of American children, they used a greater number of total words and sentences. Their use of words per sentence were, on the average, similar. The Chinese children's syntax quotients were, in general, lower than American children, but the Abstract/Concrete scores were similar. Most of the syntactic errors were in punctuation, followed by word usage and character formation. Generally, they wrote more simple sentences than either compound or complex sentences; used primarily nouns and verbs; and wrote more Chinese character than Mandarin Phonetic Symbols (MPS). The most frequent handwriting errors were substitution of MPS and writing a character with the same pronunciation in spontaneous writing, and spacing of basic units, addition and omission of a stroke in copying. Generally, they made few errors in handwriting and copying task.
520 $a In addition, three subgroups of children were studied, and their writing was compared on the same variables. The results indicated there were significant relationships: (1) between nonverbal intelligence and written language performance in words per sentence, syntax quotients, level of abstraction, and conjunctions; (2) between high-achieving first graders and low achievers in words per sentence, syntax quotient, level of abstraction, sentence and word types; and (3) between low-achieving first graders and third-grade LD children in productivity, level of abstraction, and the use of Mandarin Phonetic Symbols.
520 $a Further longitudinal research is needed to understand the developmental patterns in all areas of written language. Research with other exceptional groups also is needed. Future studies should address the writing process and pragmatic issues in Chinese written language.
