Gerwin, Katelyn L.; Walsh, Bridget; Christ, Sharon L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: In our earlier study, we found that overall accuracy on nonword repetition (NWR) lacked the specificity to differentiate among groups of children who stutter (CWS) with and without concomitant speech sound and/or language disorders and children who do not stutter (CWNS). The aim of this study was to determine whether NWR error…

Emily R. Zane; Ruth B. Grossman – Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 2024
Background and aims: A substantial minority of autistic individuals score within typical ranges on standard language tests, suggesting that autism does not necessarily affect language acquisition. This idea is reflected in current diagnostic criteria for autism, wherein language impairment is no longer included. However, some work has suggested…

Castilla-Earls, Anny; Pérez-Leroux, Ana Teresa; Fulcher-Rood, Katrina; Barr, Christopher – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2021
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to find morphological markers with good diagnostic accuracy to identify developmental language disorders (DLD) in Spanish-English bilingual children. Method: The participants in this study included 66 Spanish-English bilingual children between the ages of 4;0 and 6;11 (years; months) with (n = 33) and without…

Romano, Daniel R.; Kronenberger, William G.; Henning, Shirley C.; Montgomery, Caitlin J.; Ditmars, Allison M.; Johnson, Courtney A.; Bozell, Hannah D.; Yates, Adeline D.; Pisoni, David B. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Verbal working memory (VWM) delays are commonly found in prelingually deaf youth with cochlear implants (CIs), albeit with considerable interindividual variability. However, little is known about the neurocognitive information-processing mechanisms underlying these delays and how these mechanisms relate to spoken language outcomes. The…

Godin, Marie-Pier; Gagné, Andréanne; Chapleau, Nathalie – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2018
The aim of this longitudinal study was to examine spelling acquisition in French children with developmental language disorder (DLD) over a school year. Through a fine-grained spelling error analysis, we investigated whether spelling profiles could be established in the DLD population. This study comprised three groups: a typically developing (TD)…

Gareth P. Morgan; M. Adelaida Restrepo; Alejandra Auza – Grantee Submission, 2013
This study compares Spanish morphosyntax error types and magnitude in monolingual Spanish and Spanish-English bilingual children with typical language development (TD) and language impairment (LI). Performance across groups was compared using cloze tasks that targeted articles, clitics, subjunctives, and derivational morphemes in 57 children.…
