Test Battery for Australian Sign Language Morphology and Syntax

The Test Battery for Australian Sign Language (Auslan) Morphology and Syntax (Schembri et al., 2002) is an adapted version from the Test Battery for ASL Morphology and Syntax (Supalla et al., 1995, unpublished). One of the major issues in developing the test battery for Australian Sign Language (Auslan) was that, compared to other signed languages, there is a lack of descriptive research identifying morphosyntactic structures in Auslan. Therefore, the ASL test battery was chosen in order to gather more data about the nature of the linguistic structures of Auslan. A long term goal is to develop an assessment to be used for deaf children and adults learning Auslan as a second language.
