Direct linkTerband, H.; Maassen, B.; van Lieshout, P.; Nijland, L. – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2011
The aim of this study was to investigate the consistency and composition of functional synergies for speech movements in children with developmental speech disorders. Kinematic data were collected on the reiterated productions of syllables spa(/spa[image omitted]/) and paas(/pa[image omitted]s/) by 10 6- to 9-year-olds with developmental speech…

Nip, Ignatius S. B.; Green, Jordan R.; Marx, David B. – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2009
This longitudinal investigation examines developmental changes in orofacial movements occurring during the early stages of communication development. The goals were to identify developmental trends in early speech motor performance and to determine how these trends differ across orofacial behaviors thought to vary in cognitive and linguistic…

Smith, Anne – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2006
A fundamental problem for those interested in human communication is to determine how ideas and the various units of language structure are communicated through speaking. The physiological concepts involved in the control of muscle contraction and movement are theoretically distant from the processing levels and units postulated to exist in…

Peer reviewedMeltzoff, Andrew N. – Journal of Communication Disorders, 1999
Examines three alternatives to the classical framework of early cognitive development: modularity-nativism, connectionism, and theory-theory. Arguments are marshaled to support the "theory-theory" view, which emphasizes a combination of innate structure and qualitative reorganization in children's thought based on input from the people and things…

Peer reviewedBoliek, Carol A.; Lohmeier, Heather – Journal of Communication Disorders, 1999
Summarizes research findings that challenge long-standing theories of infant cognition and motor development and proposes alternative theoretical models to describe skill acquisition during the first several years of life. Findings are discussed with respect to research in the area of infant speech physiology and production. (Author/CR)

Peer reviewedLewis, Barbara A.; Singer, Lynn T.; Fulton, Sarah; Salvator, Ann; Short, Elizabeth J.; Klein, Nancy; Baley, Jill – Journal of Communication Disorders, 2002
A study of very low birth weight babies with (n=89) and without (n=71) bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) and term controls was conducted at age 8. The BPD group demonstrated reduced articulation, receptive language skills, performance IQ, and gross and fine motor skills, and almost half were enrolled in speech-language therapy. (Contains…
