Carlson, Patricia; Anisfeld, Moshe – Child Develop, 1969
Descriptors: Child Development, Language Ability, Language Acquisition, Language Patterns
Peer reviewedKehoe, Margaret M. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
Findings from several studies indicate: stressed and word-final unstressed syllables are preserved more than nonfinal unstressed syllables; word-internal unstressed syllables with obstruent onsets are preserved more than sonorant onsets; unstressed syllables with non-reduced vowels are preserved more than reduced vowels; and right-sided stressed…

Peer reviewedBeckman, Mary E.; Edwards, Jan – Child Development, 2000
Presents evidence from studies on adults' language processing and children's language acquisition that the lexicon is at the core of grammatical generalizations at several levels of representation. Proposes that phonological acquisition might provide the bootstrapping into grammatical generalization in general. Concludes that age-appropriate…

Jakobson, Roman – 1968
This work is an English translation of the author's classic "Kindersprache, Aphasie und allgemeine Lautgesetze," first published in 1941. It is considered the most representative and comprehensive of the author's phonological writings, dealing not only with phonological typology but related problems of language acquisition and phonemic regression…

Peer reviewedVelleman, Shelley L.; Vihman, Marilyn M. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2002
Cognitive mechanisms that may account for the phenomena of whole-word phonology and phonological templates in children are described and strategies for identifying whole-word phonological patterns in normal and disordered phonologies are proposed. Intervention strategies that draw on these same mechanisms as a way to overcome their inappropriate…

Peer reviewedIngram, David; Ingram, Kelly D. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
This article introduces a whole-word approach to phonological analysis and demonstrates the approach by conducting an analysis and outlining treatment recommendations for a child with phonological disability. Rationale for using a whole-word approach and also for defining phonological typologies are presented, along with four components of a…

Peer reviewedBarlow, Jessica A. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
This article concludes a forum that considered theoretical and analytical frameworks applied to developing systems in phonological theory and treatment. It discusses the role of complexity in target selection of children with language impairments: error pattern interaction and complexity; complexity, treatment, and constraint demotion; and…

Peer reviewedPorter, Judith Halvorsen; Hodson, Barbara Williams – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
Twelve school-based speech-language practitioners enlisted the assistance of a university clinical phonologist to implement a research project investigating phonological acquisition. The speech samples of 520 children (ages 2-8) were transcribed. The 3-year-olds had acquired all major phoneme classes except liquids, /l/ was acquired between 4- 5,…

Peer reviewedDinnsen, Daniel A.; O'Connor, Kathleen M. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2001
This article compares different claims that have been made concerning acquisition by transitional rule-based derivation theories and by optimality theory. Case studies of children with phonological delays are examined. Error patterns are argued to be implicationally related and optimality theory is shown to offer a principled explanation.…

Peer reviewedStorkel, Holly L.; Morrisette, Michele L. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2002
This article highlights the link between lexical and phonological acquisition by considering learning by children beyond the 50-word stage and by applying cognitive models of spoken word processing to development. The effects of lexical and phonological variables on perception, production, and learning are discussed in the context of a…
