Abstract

ABSTRACT Purpose: to develop lists of sentences in Brazilian Portuguese based on daily vocabulary to evaluate auditory speech perception in children. Methods: a Brazilian Portuguese corpus with adaptations to attend the criteria established for this study and analyzed by judges was used to obtain the sentences. Thirty-seven lists, each composed of thirteen sentences with fifty phonological keywords, were constructed. The material was presented to ten children, aged between 6 and 10 years, with no hearing or communication complaints. The Friedman test was applied to verify possible differences among the lists. The level of significance adopted was 5% (0.05). Results: the mean speech recognition index presented by the participants was 96.8% for all lists. The thirty-seven lists were considered statistically similar (p=0.140). Conclusion: the developed material proved to contain sentences that represent situations of children’s day-to-day communication and its application is easy and quick.
