Using a Sentence Repetition Task in French Sign Language : a new approach to assess LSF abilities
International audience Sign-language assignment has been an issue for 15 years. Several tools in different sign languages have been created, and each of them has a specific goal : assessment of sign language as a first language, sign language as a L2, lexical development, cognitive abilities, etc. (...
