Children's own language production has a role in structuring the language of their conversation partners and influences their own development. Children's active participation in their own language dev...
Children's exposure to talk about conceptual categories plays a powerful role in shaping their conceptual development. However, it remains unclear when parents begin to talk about categories with youn...
Children in foster care are at an increased risk for language delays and disorders, and foster parents can play a significant role in preventing delays in early language development. This scoping revi...
Using the PRISMA-ScR (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for scoping reviews), multiple databases were searched, and resulting article titles and abstracts we...
A total of 24 studies were identified. Of the 24 studies reviewed, all included interventions focused on increasing parent-child relationships and decreasing child challenging behaviors, but few inclu...
The results of this review point to the need for more research on language interventions that can be implemented by foster parents. The discussion focuses on the important role speech-language patholo...

Accurate early identification of children with low language ability is important but existing measures generally have low sensitivity. This remains an area of concern for preventive and public health ...
The Early Language Identification Measure (ELIM) was developed and comprised five measurement sections, each measuring different aspects of development combined into a single measure. This was tested ...
Three hundred and seventy-six children were assessed on both the ELIM identification measure and the PLS-5 with 362 providing complete data. While each section of the ELIM predicted low language abili...
A novel measure has been developed which accurately identifies children at risk of low language, allowing clinicians to target resources efficiently and intervene early....
This study compares the home language environments of children with (a suspicion of) developmental language disorder (DLD) with that of children with typical development (TD). It does so by adopting n...
Ninety-nine 2- to 4-year-old toddlers participated: 59 with (a suspicion of) DLD and 40 with TD. LENA metrics on adult word count, conversational turn count, and child vocalization count were obtained...
We found lower adult word count, conversational turn count, and child vocalization count in the DLD group, independent of multilingualism but not of parental education. In the DLD group, receptive voc...
Toddlers with (a suspicion of) DLD vocalize less at home than children with TD. They also hear fewer adult words and experience fewer conversational turns. Children with DLD's language outcomes are to...
Several studies have shown that cochlear implantation (CI) can influence language development in children with severe-to-profound hearing loss. However, whether the age of implantation and duration of...
The present study recruited 133 Mandarin-speaking children with hearing loss, aged between 36 and 71 months chronologically, from a nonprofit organisation in Taiwan. The Revised Preschool Language Ass...
Children with hearing loss demonstrated delayed language comprehension and oral expression. Among them, 34% achieved age-appropriate language development. The duration of CI use had a significant dire...
In Mandarin-speaking children with late CIs, the duration of CI use is a more effective mediator of language development than the age of implantation....
It was reported that more than 96% of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children are accompanied with different degrees of sensory processing abnormalities, and up to 50% of ASD children exhibit abnormal...
In this study, 220 ASD children aging 3 years and 0 months to 4 years and 11 months are recruited as the research objects, and their demographic characteristics are collected. The subjects are tested ...
This longitudinal study will explore the categories of auditory processing developmental trajectories in ASD children, and analyze the relationship between different categories of auditory processing ...
The quality of infant-directed speech (IDS) and infant-directed singing (IDSi) are considered vital to children, but empirical studies on protomusical qualities of the IDSi influencing infant developm...
In low- and middle-income countries, poverty and impaired growth prevent children from meeting their cognitive developmental potential. There are few studies investigating these relationships in high-...
Participants were 12,536 children born between 2000 and 2002 in the UK and participating in the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS). Short stature was defined as having a height-for-age 2 or more standard d...
Children with short stature at age 3 years (4.1%) had language development scores that were consistently lower from ages 3 to 11 years (- 0.26 standard deviations (SD) (95% CI - 0.37, - 0.15)). This e...
Short stature at age 3 years was associated with lower language development scores at ages 3 to 11 years in UK children. These associations remained significant after adjustment for socioeconomic, chi...
The consensus in scientific literature is that each child undergoes a unique linguistic development path, albeit with shared developmental stages. Some children excel or lag behind their peers in lang...
We observed children longitudinally from 3 to 24 months of life to explore early predictors of vocabulary size. Based on the productive vocabulary size of children at 24 months, 30 children met our sa...
Results indicated early precursors of language outcome at 24 months identifiable as early as 3 months in vocal productions, 6 months for gaze at mother's face and 12 months for gestural productions....
Our research highlights both theoretical and practical implications. Theoretically, identifying the early indicators of belonging to the group of late or early talkers underscores the significant role...
