Cora E. Mukerji; John S. Wilson III; Carol L. Wilkinson; Manon A. Krol; Charles A. Nelson; Helen Tager-Flusberg – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Previous research links resting frontal gamma power to key developmental outcomes in young neurotypical (NT) children and infants at risk for language impairment. However, it remains unclear whether gamma power is specifically associated with language or with more general cognitive abilities among young children diagnosed with autism spectrum…

Shaqiri, Albulene; Gallopeni, Florim; Selmani, Erza – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
The importance of early childhood narrative skills in social relationships and children's internal capacity is of utmost interest to be studied. This aim of this study is to examine how the social group functioning, narrative skills, school success and non-verbal intelligence are interconnected. This is a mixed design study with a sample of 109…

Massonnié, Jessica; Llaurado, Anna; Sumner, Emma; Dockrell, Julie E. – Oxford Review of Education, 2022
There has been a resurgence in concern about the levels of pupils' oral language skills at school entry. To support and develop these skills effectively an understanding of the key components of oral language is required. We examined the oral language skills of monolingual children in Reception (M[subscript Age] = 57.9 months; n = 126) and Year 1…

Briet, Gaëtan; Le Maner-Idrissi, Gaïd; Seveno, Tanguy; Lemarec, Oliver; Le Sourn-Bissaoui, Sandrine – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2023
The recent introduction of inclusive schooling settings in France has allowed children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) as young as 3 years to benefit from teaching adapted to their special needs, while sharing the same educational environment as their typical peers. The present study examined (1) whether children with ASD attending an…

Coleman, Heather; Layden, Selena J.; Horner, Lynda Gayle – Education and Training in Autism and Developmental Disabilities, 2023
The use of evidence-based practices (EBPs) in the child's natural setting is critical for young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to improve communication skills and promote generalization. Yet, to implement EBPs effectively, caregivers often require training. The purpose of this study is to explore the efficacy of behavior skills…

Bruinsma, Gerda; Wijnen, Frank; Gerrits, Ellen – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2023
Background: Early and effective treatment for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) is important. Although a growing body of research shows the effects of interventions at the group level, clinicians observe large individual differences in language growth, and differences in outcomes across language domains. A systematic…

O'Neill, Hilary; Murphy, Carol-Anne; Chiat, Shula – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: This study followed up children identified with expressive language delay (ELD) or receptive/expressive language delay (R/ELD) at 2 years of age, Time 1 (T1), in order to identify their language profiles at 4--5 years, Time 2 (T2), and explore relationships to T1 language, gesture use, and symbolic comprehension. Method: Nineteen of 22…

Lorang, Emily; Venker, Courtney E.; Sterling, Audra – Journal of Child Language, 2020
Maternal input influences language development in children with Down syndrome (DS) and typical development (TD). Telegraphic input, or simplified input violating English grammatical rules, is controversial in speech-language pathology, yet no research to date has investigated whether mothers of children with DS use telegraphic input. This study…

Dowdall, Nicholas; Melendez-Torres, G. J.; Murray, Lynne; Gardner, Frances; Hartford, Leila; Cooper, Peter J. – Child Development, 2020
Interventions that train parents to share picture books with children are seen as a strategy for supporting child language development. We conducted meta-analyses using robust variance estimation modeling on results from 19 RCTs (N[subscript total] = 2,594; M[subscript child age] = 1-6 years). Overall, book-sharing interventions had a small sized…

Bottema-Beutel, Kristen; Kim, So Yoon; Crowley, Shannon; Yoder, Paul J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Cross-lagged panel analysis was used to examine associations between two joint engagement variables; higher order supported joint engagement and higher order supported joint engagement that co-occurs with caregiver's follow-in talk (higher order supported joint engagement + follow-in), and expressive and receptive vocabulary in a group of young…

Waddington, Hannah; van der Meer, Larah; Sigafoos, Jeff; Whitehouse, Andrew – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Contemporary parent-implemented early intervention programs for children with autism spectrum disorder usually incorporate a range of techniques with different theoretical underpinnings. While research suggests that parents often learn to implement interventions with an acceptable degree of overall fidelity, there is limited research into parent…

Neha, Tia; Reese, Elaine; Schaughency, Elizabeth; Taumoepeau, Mele – Developmental Psychology, 2020
The home-learning environment (HLE) is critical for young children's early learning skills, yet little research has focused on HLEs in indigenous communities. This study examined the role of the HLE of 41 whanau (New Zealand Maori families and community) in relation to their young children's (M = 4 years, 4 months) early learning skills. Parents…
