Eichorn, Naomi; Pirutinsky, Steven – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: Contemporary motor theories indicate that well-practiced movements are best performed automatically, without conscious attention or monitoring. We applied this perspective to speech production in school-age children and examined how dual-task conditions that engaged sustained attention affected speech fluency, speech rate, and language…

Lescht, Erica; Venker, Courtney E.; McHaney, Jacie R.; Bohland, Jason W.; Hampton Wray, Amanda – Topics in Language Disorders, 2022
Language skills have long been posited to be a factor contributing to developmental stuttering. The current study aimed to evaluate whether novel word recognition, a critical skill for language development, differentiated children who stutter from children who do not stutter. Twenty children who stutter and 18 children who do not stutter, aged 3-8…

Malkin, Louise; Abbot-Smith, Kirsten – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Autistic children have difficulties in adapting their language for particular listeners and contexts. We asked whether these difficulties are more prominent when children are required to be cognitively flexible, when changing how they have previously referred to a particular object. We compared autistic (N = 30) with neuro-typical 5- to…

Helo, Andrea; Guerra, Ernesto; Coloma, Carmen Julia; Reyes, María Antonia; Rämä, Pia – Language Learning and Development, 2022
Visually situated spoken words activate phonological, visual, and semantic representations guiding overt attention during visual exploration. We compared the activation of these representations in children with and without developmental language disorder (DLD) across four eye-tracking experiments, with a particular focus on visual (shape)…

Bowdrie, Kristina; Holt, Rachael Frush; Houston, Derek M. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The aim of this study was to examine the influence of caregivers' reports of family-related environmental confusion--which refers to the level of overstimulation in the family home environment due to auditory and nonauditory (i.e., visual and cognitive) noise--on the relation between child temperament and spoken language outcomes in…

Borovsky, Arielle – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Toddlerhood is marked by advances in several lexico-semantic skills, including improvements in the size and structure of the lexicon and increased efficiency in lexical processing. This project seeks to delineate how early changes in vocabulary size and vocabulary structure support lexical processing (Experiment 1), and how these three skills…

Ehrhorn, Anna M.; Adlof, Suzanne M.; Fogerty, Daniel; Laing, Spencer – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2021
We assessed nonword repetition (NWR) skills in 7-9 year-old children with dyslexia (dyslexia-only), developmental language disorder (DLD-only), co-occurring DLD+dyslexia, and typical development (TD) with a norm-referenced and an experimental task. The experimental task manipulated phonemic variability (dissimilarity among consonant phonemes…

Crespo, Kimberly; Kaushanskaya, Margarita – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: The current study examined the role of attention and language ability in nonverbal rule induction performance in a demographically diverse sample of school-age children. Method: The participants included 43 English-speaking monolingual and 65 Spanish-English bilingual children between the ages of 5 and 9 years. Core Language Index…

Eichorn, Naomi; Pirutinsky, Steven – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study compared attention control and flexibility in school-age children who stutter (CWS) and children who do not stutter (CWNS) based on their performance on a behavioral task and parent report. We used a classic attention-shifting paradigm that included manipulations of task goals and timing to test effects of varying demands for…
