Brinton, Bonnie; Fujiki, Martin – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1982
The study compared several discourse characteristics of six linguistically normal and six language-disordered kindergarten children. While neither the linguistically normal nor the language-disordered groups had achieved an adult level of competence, normal children were much more aware of the interactive nature of discourse than…

Klee, Thomas; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1989
The study found that mean length of utterance (MLU) and age were significantly correlated in both language impaired (N=24) and normal preschool children with rates of MLU change also similar for both groups of children. (DB)

Rizzo, Jean M.; Stephens, M. Irene – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1981
As a group, the language impaired children demonstrated deficits in comprehension when compared to the normal language children. However, both groups scored near the ceiling on several tests, and on most tests that did differentiate the two groups, the mean scores of both groups were above the norms. (Author)

Weiss, Amy L.; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1983
Four 17- to 21-month-old normally developing, and four 32- to 35-month-old language impaired children, classified as "referential" speakers or "expressive" speakers, produced linguistic features in clusters, and manifested play behaviors that were consistent with the children's pattern of lexical distribution.

Donahue, Mavis; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1982
The syntactic proficiency of 67 learning disabled children was evaluated during a task requiring them to convey information to a listener. Learning disabled children in all grades were found to produce shorter mean main clauses than nondisabled children even on this relatively simple communicative task. (Author/SEW)

McGregor, Karla K.; Leonard, Laurence B. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1989
The study found that activities designed to improve the elaboration and/or retrieval of words with two language-impaired children (ages 9 and 10) showed definite effects with the greatest gains associated with activities focusing on both elaboration and retrieval. (Author/DB)

Mineo, Beth A.; Goldstein, Howard – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1990
Four developmentally delayed preschoolers were taught action-object responses in receptive and expressive language modalities, using matrix-training procedures. Acquisition of a word combination rule was facilitated by the use of familiar lexical items, whereas subsequent acquisition of new lexical knowledge was enhanced by couching training in a…

Hill, Betsy P.; Singer, Lynn T. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1990
When assessed for speech/language development, 31 children (age 1-12) fitted with endotracheal tubes for more than 3 months beginning by age 13 months showed overall language functioning within normal limits and commensurate with cognitive ability. However, a pattern of expressive language disability was noted in the oldest group. (Author/JDD)

McCauley, Rebecca J.; Demetras, M. J. – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1990
This review focuses on methods used to identify language impairment in 72 published research studies from 1983-88. Test data were most frequently used, and expressive and receptive language were routinely assessed. Research problems included the lack of clarity regarding the specific number and identity of tests used and use of incomplete tests.…

Weismer, Susan Ellis; Murray-Branch, Jamie – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1989
The study compared the effectiveness of two language intervention procedures, modeling alone versus modeling plus evoked production with four language disordered children (ages five and six). There was no marked difference between the procedures as measured on generalization probes. (Author/DB)

Wallace, Ina F.; And Others – Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1988
Fifteen 1-year-olds without otitis media were compared to 12 babies who were otitis positive. No significant differences were detected on the Bayley Scales of Infant Development or the Sequenced Inventory of Communication Development (SICD) Receptive scale. However, the otitis-positive group exhibited lower SICD Expressive scores than the…
