Due to the difficulties in differentiating bilingual children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) from temporary language that may be caused by heterogeneous input, assessments of are challenging for clinicians. Research demonstrates should all languages a child speaks. This can arduous clinicians, but computerised screening approaches provide potential solutions. MuLiMi is new web-based...

Task  repetition  is  now  considered  as  an  important  task-based  implementation  variable  which can affect complexity, accuracy, and fluency of L2 speech. However, in order to move towards theorizing  the  role  of  task  repetition  in  second  language  acquisition,  it  is  necessary  that individual variables be taken into account. The present study aimed to investigate the way task r...

N400, an event-related brain potential (ERP) waveform elicited by meaningful stimuli, is normally reduced by stimulus repetition (N400 repetition priming), and relatedness between the eliciting stimulus and preceding ones (relatedness priming). Schizophrenia patients' N400 relatedness priming deficits suggest impairment in using meaningful prime stimuli to facilitate processing of related conce...

Throughout the field of neuropsychology, evidence for complex implicit competence has been documented in patients with neurological damage and limited linguistic, attentional, or mnemonic performance. Such results suggest that systems are activated and carrying out their functions even though this information is no longer available for conscious planning and problem solving. One example of this...

OBJECTIVES To complete detailed linguistic analyses of archived recordings of pediatric cochlear implant users' imitations of nonwords; to gain insight into the children's developing phonological systems and the wide range of variability in nonword responses. DESIGN Nonword repetition: repetition of 20 auditory-only English-sounding nonwords. SETTING Central Institute for the Deaf "Educatio...
