Over half of US children are enrolled in preschools, where the quantity and quality of language input from teachers are likely to affect children's language development. Leveraging repeated objective measurements, we examined the rate per minute and phonemic diversity of child and teacher speech-related vocalizations in preschool classrooms and…

Maes, Pauline; Weyland, Marielle; Kissine, Mikhail – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
In many autistic children, speech onset is delayed and expressive language emerges after 3 years of age. We qualitatively and quantitatively describe oral productions of autistic preschoolers, including many non- or minimally speaking, recorded during interactions with a caregiver and with an experimenter. Data clustering on manually coded oral…

Lynn K. Perry; Samantha G. Mitsven; Stephanie Custode; Laura Vitale; Brett Laursen; Chaoming Song; Daniel S. Messinger – Grantee Submission, 2022
Children with hearing loss often attend inclusive preschool classrooms aimed at improving their spoken language skills. Although preschool classrooms are fertile environments for vocal interaction with peers, little is known about the dyadic processes that influence children's speech to one another and foster their language abilities and how these…

The LEESPQ was designed to support early spoken language outcome monitoring in young children who are deaf/hard of hearing. Methods: Data from 90 children with normal hearing, ages 0-18 months, are reported.…

Parkin, Jason R. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2018
Oral language and word reading skills have important effects on reading comprehension. The Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-Third Edition (WIAT-III) measures both skill sets, but little is known about their specific effects on reading comprehension within this battery. Path analysis was used to evaluate the collective effects of reading and…

Dewaele, Jean-Marc – IRAL, 1996
Shows that variation in the composition of the lexicon at token-level between more and less formal oral styles is identical to the variation between written and oral discourse. The article argues that speakers deictically anchor their utterances in a non-linguistic spatio-temporal context and that the degree of context-dependence is reflected in…

Bottari, Piero; Cipriani, Paola; Chilosi, Anna Maria; Pfanner, Lucia – Language Acquisition, 1998
Presents data that challenge the view that the omission of functional categories by children with specific language impairment is a manifestation of the same immaturity characterizing the grammar of young children without impairment. Data include atypically high omissions or even almost total absence of determiners in the speech productions of a…

Stirling, E. G.; Miles, T. R. – Annals of Dyslexia, 1988
Compared to 19 controls, 21 dyslexic boys, age 11-18, were as successful in naming parts of objects in drawings, and they had no distinctive difficulty over homophones or homographs. However, subjects did produce more distortions of words, examples of inappropriate usage, incomplete sentences, repetitions, and other errors. (Author/JDD)

Oral and Written Compositions of Students with Learning Disabilities in the Content Area of Science.

McFarland, Jacqueline; Shepard, Teri – Learning Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 1995
Middle school students (n=39) with learning disabilities completed written and oral science composition tasks. Results indicated better overall oral than written performance, use of more sentences (though shorter) in written than oral presentations, and no significant differences between oral and written word count or thought units. Little…
