    Abstract
    Standardized vocabulary tests have been criticized for their cultural/experiential biases and insensitivity to word learning differences. This review discusses the utility of supplementing the diagnostic process with a processing-based measure, such as a nonword repetition task. Nonword repetition tasks have been heralded as a more sensitive indicator of individual differences in vocabulary/word learning. Evidence on the relationship between vocabulary and nonword repetition is discussed along with a review of the currently available tests of nonword repetition. Suggestions for constructing a nonword repetition task specific to the needs of individual clinicians are offered.
