Summary/Abstract: The study describes the Slovak online version of the MAIN tool, which preserves the idea of non-shared knowledge during the storytelling between the administrator and the child. The study also compares the performance of two groups of children in pre-school age in the narrative comprehension. One group of children was examined by the Slovak online version of the MAIN tool in online environment and the other group was examined face-to-face in personal contact. There were no significant differences in narrative comprehension scores between the groups. We did not find the difference between the groups in the answers to questions related to goals, internal state terms, and questions investigating the reasoning about those internal state terms. The online administration of the MAIN tool does not influence the performance of children, so we consider the Slovak online version of the MAIN tool as appropriate for assessment of narrative comprehension in online environment.
