ABSTRACTThis paper describes the development of a vocabulary for Profiles of Early Expressive Phonological Skills for Swedish (PEEPS-SE), a tool for assessment of expressive phonology in Swedish-learning children in the age range of 18–36 months. PEEPS-SE is the Swedish version of the original PEEPS, Profiles of Early Expressive Phonological Skills, which uses two age-adequate word lists—a basic word list (BWL) for the assessment of 18–24-month-old children, to which an expanded word list (EWL) is added for assessment of 24–36-month-old children, or children with more than 250 words in their expressive vocabulary.The selection of words in PEEPS-SE is based on two types of criteria: age of acquisition and phonological complexity. The words also need to be easy to elicit in a natural way in test situations.
