The ability to perceive approximate numerosity is present in many animal species, and emerges early in human infants. Later in life, it is moderately heritable and associated with mathematical abilities, but the etiology of the Approximate Number System (ANS) and its degree of independence from other cognitive abilities in infancy is unknown.…

Marc F. Maffei; Karen V. Chenausky; Helen Tager-Flusberg; Jordan R. Green – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Despite known motor and spoken language impairments in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), the motor skills underlying speech production and their relationship with language skills have rarely been directly investigated in this population. Method: Thirty-nine autistic children (14 minimally verbal [MV], 25 verbal [V]) and 11 non-autistic…

Chelsea La Valle; Gabriela Davila Mejia; Carol L. Wilkinson; Nicole Baumer – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Toddlers with Down syndrome (DS) showcase comparable or higher rates of gestures than chronological age-- and language-matched toddlers without DS. Little is known about how gesture use in toddlers with DS relates to multiple domains of development, including motor, pragmatics, language, and visual reception (VR) skills. Unexplored is…

Deserno, Marie K.; Fuhrmann, Delia; Begeer, Sander; Borsboom, Denny; Geurts, Hilde M.; Kievit, Rogier A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Autism is often associated with early developmental delays in language and motor skills. However, little is known about the complex dynamic processes that drive the co-development of such early difficulties. The aim of the present study was to model the parallel growth of language and motor skills in a cohort of infants and to explore differences…

Kirby; Bahar Keceli-Kaysili; Tiffany G. Woynaroski – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Early differences in sensory responsiveness may contribute to difficulties with communication among autistic children; however, this theory has not been longitudinally assessed in infants at increased familial versus general population-level likelihood for autism (Sibs-autism vs. Sibs-NA) using a comprehensive battery of sensory responsiveness and…

Ferreira, Rachel de Carvalho; Alves, Claudia Regina Lindgren; Magalhães, Lívia de Castro – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
The aim was to evaluate the effects of a family-focused early intervention programme on the cognitive, motor, and language development of infants exposed to social and biological risks in the first year of life. Quasi-experimental randomized controlled trial (RBR-6ct969), with intervention (IG; n = 72) and control (CG; n = 170) groups. IG mothers…

Obeid, Rita; DeNigris, Danielle; Brooks, Patricia J. – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Motor skills have been linked to language and social development with implications for theory of mind. This study examined theory of mind (attribution of intentions task) in school-age children (N = 62, mean age 8 years; 2 months, standard deviation [SD] = 1;3) in relation to fine motor skills (grooved pegboard), receptive vocabulary (Peabody…

Huerta, Lidia; Cycyk, Lauren M.; Sanford-Keller, Hannah; Busch, Amy; Dolata, Jill; Moore, Heather; De Anda, Stephanie; Zuckerman, Katharine – Journal of Early Intervention, 2021
A retrospective review of initial early intervention and early childhood special education (EI/ECSE) evaluation reports was completed to identify practices specific to the evaluation of Latinx children's communication development. A records abstraction approach employed entailed a random selection of 294 EI/ECSE evaluation reports completed in…
