Peer reviewedChapman, Robin S.; Seung, Hye-Kyeung; Schwartz, Scott E.; Bird, Elizabeth Kay-Raining – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2000
Predictors of language production skills were evaluated in 48 children and adolescents with Down syndrome and compared to 48 children matched for nonverbal mental age and mother's years of education. Comparison of two models found the model that incorporated comprehension performance (as well group membership, chronological age, cognition,…

Peer reviewedMcCune, Lorraine; Vihman, Marilyn M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2001
This study used longitudinal productivity criteria to establish the phonetic skill of 20 children (followed from 9 to 16 months). The number of specific consonants produced consistently across the months predicted referential lexical use at 16 months. Prior use of at least two supraglottal consonants characterized the children achieving…

Peer reviewedCantwell, Alisa; Rubin, Hyla – Annals of Dyslexia, 1992
This study compared the object naming, object recognition, reading, and spelling abilities of 22 adults, half with written language difficulties and half without. Significant positive relationships were obtained between object naming ability and reading ability, object naming and spelling, and reading and spelling performance. Results suggest that…

Peer reviewedGonzales, Maria Diana; Montgomery, Gary T.; Fucci, Donald; Randolph, Elizabeth; Ezell, Helen; Garber, Norman; Leach, Edwin – Infant-Toddler Intervention: The Transdisciplinary Journal, 2001
This study, with 53 Mexican-American infants, found that five predictors accounted for approximately 35 percent of the variance in receptive language at 12 and 22 months with average parental generation from Mexico (acculturation) and infant visual recognition memory accounting for 14 and 15 percent of the variance, respectively. No predictors…

Peer reviewedCarson, David K.; Klee, Thomas; Lee, Sarah; Perry, Cecyle K.; Williams, Karen C. – Journal of Children's Communication Development, 1998
This study examined the relationship among language proficiency, behavior problems, and other areas of development in 36 children (ages 36 to 40 months). A strong association was found between deficiencies in both expressive and receptive language and behavioral difficulties. Specifically, deficits in expressive language at age 2 were more…

Peer reviewedCatts, Hugh W.; Fey, Marc E.; Zhang, Xuyang; Tomblin, J. Bruce – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
This longitudinal study examined predictors of second-grade reading outcomes in kindergarten children (N=604). Findings indicated that five kindergarten variables uniquely predicted reading outcomes in second grade: (1) letter identification, (2) sentence imitation, (3) phonological awareness, (4) rapid naming, and (5) mother's education.…
