Direct linkMahr, Tristan J.; Berisha, Visar; Kawabata, Kan; Liss, Julie; Hustad, Katherine C. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Acoustic measurement of speech sounds requires first segmenting the speech signal into relevant units (words, phones, etc.). Manual segmentation is cumbersome and time consuming. Forced-alignment algorithms automate this process by aligning a transcript and a speech sample. We compared the phoneme-level alignment performance of five…

Thomas, Anne E.; Ambrose, Sophie E.; Marvin, Christine A.; Oleson, Jacob; Moeller, Mary Pat – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Parent report was compared to judgments made by a trained researcher to determine the utility of the Vocal Development Landmarks Interview (VDLI) for monitoring development of vocal behaviors in very young children. Method: Parents of 40 typically developing children, ages 6-21 months, provided full-day naturalistic audio recordings of…

Tschida, Jessica E.; Yerys, Benjamin E. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Executive function challenges are commonly reported in the home setting for children with an autism spectrum disorder diagnosis (hereafter, autism), but little is known about these challenges in the school setting. A total of 337 youth (autism, N = 241 and typically developing, N = 96) were assessed using Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive…

This article describes the development of the Early Elementary Writing Rubric (EEWR), an analytic assessment designed to measure kindergarten and first-grade writing and inform educators' instruction. Crocker and Algina's (1986) approach to instrument development and validation was used as a guide to create and refine the writing measure. Study 1…

Cychosz, Margaret; Cristia, Alejandrina; Bergelson, Elika; Casillas, Marisa; Baudet, Gladys; Warlaumont, Anne S.; Scaff, Camila; Yankowitz, Lisa; Seidl, Amanda – Developmental Science, 2021
This study evaluates whether early vocalizations develop in similar ways in children across diverse cultural contexts. We analyze data from daylong audio recordings of 49 children (1-36 months) from five different language/cultural backgrounds. Citizen scientists annotated these recordings to determine if child vocalizations contained canonical…

Shin, Sangeun; Park, HyunJu; Hill, Katya – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study is aimed to identify the high-frequency vocabulary (HFV), otherwise termed "core vocabulary" for adults with complex communication needs. Method: Three major characteristics of the HFV--a relatively small number of different words (NDW), a relatively high word frequency, and a high word commonality across…

Brocken, Johanna E. A.; van der Kamp, John; Wormhoudt, Rene; Lenoir, Matthieu L.; Savelsbergh, Geert J. P. – Journal of Teaching in Physical Education, 2023
Purpose: The aim of this study is to measure the concurrent validity of the Athletic Skills Track (AST) by examining whether its outcome score correlates with the holistic judgments of experts about the quality of movement. Method: Video recordings of children performing the AST were shown to physical education teachers who independently gave a…

Mohan, Megha; Celshiya, Reenu; Karuppali, Sudhin; Bhat, Jayashree S.; Anil, Malavika A. – South African Journal of Childhood Education, 2022
Background: Pretend play is a form of play that involves nonliteral actions. There are limited studies reporting the developmental trends of pretend play behaviours of typically developing pre-schoolers. This knowledge would be beneficial in the early identification of deviations in pre-schoolers who have or are at risk of developing developmental…

Karusoo-Musumeci, Ava; Pearce, Wendy M.; Donaghy, Michelle – Child Language Teaching and Therapy, 2022
Oral narrative assessments are important for diagnosis of language disorders in school-age children so scoring needs to be reliable and consistent. This study explored the impact of training on the variability of story grammar scores in children's oral narrative assessments scored by multiple raters. Fifty-one speech pathologists and 19 final-year…

Ghadyani, Fariba; Tahririan, Mohammad Hassan; Afzali, Katayoon – Language Teaching Research Quarterly, 2022
There is a dearth of research on hope in studies of second or foreign (L2) language learning. Therefore, the present research contributes conceptually to a deep understanding of hope for learning English as a foreign language and the ways it may be developed. To do so, an exploratory mixed-methods design was employed. Using in-depth interviews,…

Kokkinaki, Theano – Early Child Development and Care, 2019
We compared systematically the structure, the focus, the thematic sequences, the complexity and the syntactic properties between maternal and paternal infant-directed speech in engagements of infants with their mothers and fathers. Eleven mother-infant and 11 father-infant dyads were video-recorded during their natural interactions at home from…

To examine the inter-rater reliability of Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised, Japanese Version (ADI-R-JV), the authors recruited 51 individuals aged 3-19 years, interviewed by two independent raters. Subsequently, to assess the discriminant and diagnostic validity of ADI-R-JV, the authors investigated 317 individuals aged 2-19 years, who were…

Polišenská, Kamila; Kapalková, Svetlana – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2014
Purpose: A range of nonword repetition (NWR) tasks are used in research and clinical applications, but compliance rates among young children remain low. Live presentation is usually used to improve compliance rates, but this lacks the consistency of recorded stimuli. In this study, the authors examined whether a novel delivery of NWR stimuli based…

McKenzie, Karen; Paxton, Donna; Murray, George; Milanesi, Paula; Murray, Aja Louise – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
The study outlines the evaluation of an intellectual disability screening tool, the "Child and Adolescent Intellectual Disability Screening Questionnaire" ("CAIDS-Q"), with two age groups. A number of aspects of the reliability and validity of the "CAIDS-Q" were assessed for these two groups, including inter-rater reliability, convergent and…

Edward Paul Getman – Online Submission, 2020
Despite calls for engaging assessments targeting young language learners (YLLs) between 8 and 13 years old, what makes assessment tasks engaging and how such task characteristics affect measurement quality have not been well studied empirically. Furthermore, there has been a dearth of validity research about technology-enhanced speaking tests for…
