Lexicality and frequency in specific language impairment: accuracy and error data from two nonword repetition tests.
PURPOSE Deficits in phonological working memory and deficits in phonological processing have both been considered potential explanatory factors in specific language impairment (SLI). Manipulations of the lexicality and phonotactic frequency of nonwords enable contrasting predictions to be derived from these hypotheses. METHOD Eighteen typically developing (TD) children and 18 children with SL...
متن کاملNonword repetition and child language impairment.
A brief, processing-dependent, nonword repetition task, designed to minimize biases associated with traditional language tests, was investigated. In Study 1, no overlap in nonword repetition performance was found between a group of 20 school-age children enrolled in language intervention (LI) and a group of 20 age-matched peers developing language normally (LN). In Study 2, a comparison of like...
متن کاملNonword repetition and sentence repetition as clinical markers of specific language impairment: the case of Cantonese.
PURPOSE Recent research suggests that nonword repetition (NWR) and sentence repetition (SR) tasks can be used to discriminate between children with SLI and their typically developing age-matched (TDAM) and younger (TDY) peers. METHOD Fourteen Cantonese-speaking children with SLI and 30 of their TDAM and TDY peers were compared on NWR and SR tasks. NWR of IN nonwords (CV combinations attested ...
متن کاملPicture Naming in Children With and Without Specific Language Impairment: An Error Analysis Study
Objectives: The lexical-level deficits are one of the hallmark limitations observed in early school-age children with specific language impairment. These problems are the predictors of reading problems and poor performance at school. Most studies in Persian-speaker children with specific language impairment have focused on syntax and morphology and the naming errors profile of these children ar...
متن کاملDo nonword repetition errors in children with specific language impairment reflect a weakness in an unidentified skill specific to nonword repetition or a deficit in simultaneous processing?
This Commentary supports Gathercole’s (2006) proposal on a double deficit in children with specific language impairment (SLI). The author suggests that these children have a limited phonological storage combined with a particular problem of processing novel speech, stimuli. According to Gathercole, there are three areas of skill contributing to memory for nonwords: general cognitive abilities, ...
