Background: The detection of specific language impairment (SLI) in children growing up bilingually presents particular challenges for clinicians. Non-word repetition (NWR) and sentence repetition (SR) tasks have proven to be the most accurate diagnostic tools for monolingual populations, raising the question of the extent of their usefulness in…

A total of 35 ninth-grade classes (N = 900) in Germany were randomly assigned to one of four conditions--live, video, text, or a (nontreated) control group--in a pretest, posttest, and follow-up design. Comparing the three…

Schilbach, Leonhard; Eickhoff, Simon B.; Cieslik, Edna C.; Kuzmanovic, Bojana; Vogeley, Kai – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2012

High-functioning autism (HFA) is characterized by impairments of social interaction, which may be associated with an inability to automatically…
