Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that standardized word-lists exist for child English language acquisition?

Yes. Standardized word-lists and developmental inventories, such as the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories and age-of-acquisition norms, are widely established and utilized in research on child English and multilingual language acquisition.

Verdict: SUPPORTED · 3 sources for, 0 against · Last checked

The analysis

The retrieved papers repeatedly reference established standardized vocabulary norms (such as Kuperman et al., 2012) and standardized instruments like the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories (CDIs), which explicitly serve as standardized word lists for assessing child language acquisition. Papers [1], [4], and [8] all rely on or discuss these standardized inventories and norms, fully supporting the claim. No retrieved papers contradict the existence of such lists.
