The validity of MLU and a measure of syntactic complecity were tested against LARSP on spontaneous speech samples from 87 children, ranging in age from I;6 to 4;9. Change in some LARSP clausal, measures was found across MLU stages up to MLU 4.5. For the measure of syntactic complexity, no such ceiling was found for the clausal connectivity score in LARSP or for avarage clausal complexity indexed LARSP phrasal complexity. It is concluded that MLU is a valid measure of clausal complexity up to 4.5 and that our measure of syntactic complexity is more valid at more advanced stages.
