Abbondanza, Filippo; Dale, Philip S.; Wang, Carol A.; Hayiou-Thomas, Marianna E.; Toseeb, Umar; Koomar, Tanner S.; Wigg, Karen G.; Feng, Yu; Price, Kaitlyn M.; Kerr, Elizabeth N.; Guger, Sharon L.; Lovett, Maureen W.; Strug, Lisa J.; van Bergen, Elsje; Dolan, Conor V.; Tomblin, J. Bruce; Moll, Kristina; Schulte-Körne, Gerd; Neuhoff, Nina; Warnke, Andreas; Fisher, Simon E.; Barr, Cathy L.; Michaelson, Jacob J.; Boomsma, Dorret I.; Snowling, Margaret J.; Hulme, Charles; Whitehouse, Andrew J. O.; Pennell, Craig E.; Newbury, Dianne F.; Stein, John; Talcott, Joel B.; Bishop, Dorothy V. M.; Paracchini, Silvia – Child Development, 2023
Handedness has been studied for association with language-related disorders because of its link with language hemispheric dominance. No clear pattern has emerged, possibly because of small samples, publication bias, and heterogeneous criteria across studies. Non-right-handedness (NRH) frequency was assessed in N = 2503 cases with reading and/or…

Hannah Witherstone – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2024
Background: Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) impacts various aspects of children's language abilities, including the processing of inflectional morphology. Prior research suggests that children with DLD exhibit deficits in processing speed and sensitivity to grammatical inflections, yet the relationship between these deficits remains unclear.…

Andrey Vyshedskiy; Rohan Venkatesh; Edward Khokhlovich; Deniz Satik – npj Science of Learning, 2024
Analysis of linguistic abilities that are concurrently impaired in individuals with language deficits allows identification of a shared underlying mechanism. If any two linguistic abilities are mediated by the same underlying mechanism, then both abilities will be absent if this mechanism is broken. Clustering techniques automatically arrange…

Channell, Marie Moore; Sandstrom, Linnea E. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
This study compared mental state language (talk about emotions, thoughts, intentions, etc.) used by 6- to 11-year-old children with Down syndrome (DS) to a younger typically developing (TD) comparison group matched by nonverbal cognition. We aimed to determine (1) whether mental state language use is delayed in DS relative to developmental…

Ola Ghawi-Dakwar; Elinor Saiegh-Haddad – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Word learning requires the creation of phonological and semantic representations and links in long-term memory. Phonological distance of a given word from the spoken language affects children's lexical-phonological representations and processing. The study investigates the role of the phonological distance of Modern Standard Arabic (StA)…

Ebert, Kerry Danahy – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study examined the influences of bilingualism and developmental language disorder (DLD) on nonverbal processing speed. DLD is associated with slower processing speed, but the extent to which slowing extends to bilingual populations is not established. The possible presence of bilingual cognitive effects could also lead to faster…

Gordon, Katherine R.; Storkel, Holly L.; Lowry, Stephanie L.; Ohlmann, Nancy B. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Learning novel words, including the specific phonemes that make up word forms, is a struggle for many individuals with developmental language disorder (DLD). Building robust representations of words includes encoding during periods of input and consolidation between periods of input. The primary purpose of the current study is to…

Dannielle Hibshman; Ellyn A. Riley – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2024
Purpose: Persons with aphasia (PWA) experience differences in attention after stroke, potentially impacting cognitive/language performance. This secondary analysis investigated physiologically measured vigilant attention during linguistic and nonlinguistic processing in PWA and control participants. Method: To evaluate performance and attention in…

Delgado, Christine F.; Simpson, Elizabeth A.; Zeng, Guangyu; Delgado, Rafael E.; Miron, Oren – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
We integrated data from a newborn hearing screening database and a preschool disability database to examine the relationship between newborn click evoked auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) and developmental disabilities. This sample included children with developmental delay (n = 2992), speech impairment (SI, n = 905), language impairment (n =…

Earle, F. Sayako; Ullman, Michael T. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study examined procedural and declarative learning and consolidation abilities in adults with developmental language disorder (DLD) relative to their typical language (TD) peers. Method: A total of 100 young adults (age 18-24 years) with (n = 21) and without (n = 79) DLD participated across two sites. Performance measures on a…

Larson, Caroline; Gangopadhyay, Ishanti; Prescott, Kathryn; Kaushanskaya, Margarita; Ellis Weismer, Susan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
This study examined verbal mediation during planning in school-age children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) relative to age- and nonverbal IQ- matched typically developing peers using a dual-task paradigm. Analyses showed no group differences in performance. However, in the condition intended to disrupt verbal mediation, language skills were…

Chapman, Laura Roche; Hallowell, Brooke – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Arousal and cognitive effort are relevant yet often overlooked components of attention during language processing. Pupillometry can be used to provide a psychophysiological index of arousal and cognitive effort. Given that much is unknown regarding the relationship between cognition and language deficits seen in people with aphasia (PWA),…

Lauren D. Goegan; Damilola Olanrewaju; Gabrielle Young – Learning Disabilities: A Contemporary Journal, 2024
A scoping review was conducted to examine current Canadian research on learning disabilities (LD). Ninety-six articles were found in LD specific journals that were written by researchers from Canadian universities between 2013-2023. Their research could be incapsulated into 10 themes: (a) reading and literacy, (b) language and linguistics, (c)…

Rogalski, Yvonne; Key-DeLyria, Sarah E.; Hazamy, Audrey; Altmann, Lori J. P. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study compared global coherence (GC) in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) to a healthy older adult (HOA) group during single (sitting) and dual (stationary cycling) tasks. Additionally, it explored the relationship between GC and cognition in PD. Method: Thirty-seven individuals with PD and 19 HOAs participated in the…

Mengisidou, Maria; Marshall, Chloë R.; Stavrakaki, Stavroula – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2020
Background: Children with dyslexia and/or developmental language disorder (hereafter children with DDLD) have been reported to retrieve fewer words than their typically developing (TD) peers in semantic fluency tasks. It is not known whether this retrieval difficulty can be attributed to the semantic structure of their lexicon being poor or,…
