This paper reports on a study that investigated young children's responses to a range of probabilistic tasks. A central aspect of the study was our examination of the children's use of subjective thinking. Most research that has been conducted in relation to young children's probabilistic thinking has focused on the extent to which young children…

Uljarevic, Mirko; Alvares, Gail A.; Steele, Morgan; Edwards, Jaelyn; Frazier, Thomas W.; Hardan, Antonio Y.; Whitehouse, Andrew J. O. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Despite their high prevalence and clinical importance in autism, unusual and restricted interests remain under-researched and poorly understood. This study aimed to characterize the frequency and type of interests in autism by coding caregivers' open-ended responses in a sample of 237 autistic children and adolescents (M[subscript age] = 8.27…

Rah, Yu Jin; Kim, Jiyun; Lee, Sang Ah – Child Development, 2022
Children's spatial mapping starts out particularly sensitive to 3D wall-like boundaries and develops over early childhood to flexibly include other boundary types. This study investigated whether spatial boundaries influence children's episodic memory, as in adults, and whether this effect is modulated by boundary type. Eighty-one Korean children…

Kelley, Elizabeth Spencer; Bueno, Raina – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2022
The purpose of the study was to examine word learning in preschool children from families who differed in socioeconomic status (SES). Preschool children (N = 58) were assigned to SES groups based on maternal education and completed a dynamic assessment of explicit word learning 2 times. At the first administration, no SES-group differences were…

Hackett, Abigail – Literacy, 2022
This paper draws on 3 years of ethnographic research with young children and their families in a northern English town, employing a more-than-human lens to pay attention to what, beyond humans, might be involved in the emergence of children's literacies. The paper focuses on the role of the body and place in the emergence of young children's…

Channell, Marie Moore; Sandstrom, Linnea E. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
This study compared mental state language (talk about emotions, thoughts, intentions, etc.) used by 6- to 11-year-old children with Down syndrome (DS) to a younger typically developing (TD) comparison group matched by nonverbal cognition. We aimed to determine (1) whether mental state language use is delayed in DS relative to developmental…

Hebert, Elizabeth Baltus; Nolan, Karen W.; Smith, Katie Nicole – Infants and Young Children, 2022
The cardinal features of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are recognized to include impairments in communication, social interactions, and restricted, repetitive behaviors and stereotyped interests. However, many children with ASD also have motor activity limitations that are often overlooked. The purpose of this review is to summarize the…

Paine, Amy L.; Hashmi, Salim; Howe, Nina; Johnson, Nisha; Scott, Matthew; Hay, Dale F. – Developmental Psychology, 2022
Humor is a central feature of close and intimate relationships in childhood. However, fundamental questions regarding the relationship between humor production, pretend play, and social understanding have been overlooked. In a selected subsample from a prospective longitudinal study of first-born children (N = 110, M age = 6.91 years, 46.4%…

Liu, Chunyan; Zhai, Huajie; Su, Shuhua; Song, Sutao; Chen, Gongxiang; Jiang, Yi – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Previous studies have found reduced leftward bias of facial processing in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, it is not clear whether they manifest a leftward bias in general visual processing. To shed light on this issue, the current study used the manual line bisection task to assess children 5 to 15 years of age with ASD…

In two studies, we used the Gottschaldt's Hidden Figure Test (GHFT) for assessing figure disembedding ability in children aged 7-11. Study 1 demonstrated in a large sample of typically developing children that GHFT accuracy and time scores differed across age groups, without sex and socioeconomic differences. Thus, we provided normative data only…

Snowling, Margaret J.; West, Gillian; Fricke, Silke; Bowyer-Crane, Claudine; Dilnot, Julia; Cripps, Denise; Nash, Marysia; Hulme, Charles – Journal of Research in Reading, 2022
Background: There is now substantial evidence that language interventions delivered to small groups can be effective for improving language skills and hence strengthening the foundation for formal schooling. However, there are remaining challenges when delivering such interventions in naturalistic environments at scale. Method: We reflect on three…

Bourassa Bédard, Vincent; MacLeod, Andrea A. N.; Trudeau, Natacha – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: Research in word-finding difficulties is sparse, especially in languages other than English. As a result, the factors associated with the frequency of word-finding behaviours are poorly understood, particularly in discourse. Aims: This exploratory study is the first to collect data relative to the expected frequency of word-finding…

Su, Yinshan; Chen, Yuejia; Huang, Jin – Australasian Journal of Early Childhood, 2022
The body is the very basis of children's self-growth and their understanding of the world. However, children's body experiences of growing up have rarely been studied. This paper uses a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to study the body experience of 35 kindergarten children aged 5-6 from Nanjing, China. We found that children's body…

Zinsser, Katherine M.; Silver, H. Callie; Shenberger, Elyse R.; Jackson, Velisha – Review of Educational Research, 2022
Young children (birth to age 5) are more likely to be expelled or suspended than school-aged children, but we know comparatively little about the precursors to and prevention of exclusion in early childhood settings. Furthermore, what research has been conducted has not been systematically synthesized to inform policy and funding decisions. The…
