Fujiki, Martin; And Others – Journal of Communication Disorders, 1987
Language impaired subjects (N=10) at each age level from 6 through 10 were evaluated for ability to correct grammatical violations of word order. Normal 6-, 7-, and 8-year-olds performed better than language impaired age-matched peers, and language-impaired 9- and 10-year-olds performed better than younger impaired subjects. (Author/DB)

Delage, Helene; Tuller, Laurice – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2007
Purpose: The authors' purpose was to explore the nature of the link between hearing loss (HL) and language impairment in adolescents with mild-to-moderate hearing loss (MMHL). Does language performance (generally or in certain areas) normalize at adolescence? Method: The language skills of 19 French-speaking adolescents (ages 11-15) with moderate…
