On average, language and communication characteristics of individuals with Down syndrome (the most common genetic cause of intellectual disability) follow a consistent profile. Despite considerable individual variability, receptive language is typically stronger than expressive language, with particular challenges in phonology and syntax. We…

Peer reviewedClarke-Klein, Susan M. – Topics in Language Disorders, 1994
Associations among expressive phonological development, metaphonological skills, and spelling performance are examined. Suggestions are offered for analyzing and remediating phonological deficiencies of children with phonologically based spelling problems. A case study of a third grader with spelling problems exemplifies assessment and…

Peer reviewedSwank, Linda K. – Topics in Language Disorders, 1994
Relationships between phonological coding abilities and reading outcomes have implications for differential diagnosis of language-based reading problems. The theoretical construct of specific phonological coding ability is explained, including phonological encoding, phonological awareness and metaphonology, lexical access, working memory, and…

Peer reviewedHodson, Barbara Williams – Topics in Language Disorders, 1994
The impact of a disordered phonological system (expressive or receptive) on language development is examined. Research results and guidelines are presented for identification of critical intelligibility and phonological awareness deficiencies and for intervention. Options for expediting intelligibility gains and research findings on enhancing…

Peer reviewedWhitehurst, Grover J.; And Others – Topics in Language Disorders, 1991
Twenty-seven toddlers identified as showing specific expressive language delay (ELD) were studied and followed through the preschool period. Findings indicated that home-based intervention accelerated vocabulary skills, but did not decrease the likelihood of later phonological problems. ELD was also seen as a self-correcting condition.
