The Interactive Metronome (IM) is a neuromotor therapy program that utilizes a highly adaptive technology to help individuals improve their underlying motor planning and sequencing ability. A study in the American Journal of Occupational Therapy (March/April 2001) reported that children who received IM treatment showed statistically significant changes in attention, motor control, language proc...

This review examined the status of long-term memory systems in specific language impairment (SLI), in particular declarative memory and aspects of procedural memory. Studies included in the review were identified following a systematic search of the literature and findings combined using meta-analysis. This review showed individuals with SLI are poorer than age matched controls in the learning ...

Many studies have examined the distinction between featureand relation-based categories (Gentner, 2005; Genter & Kurtz, 2005; Jung & Hummel, 2009; Tomlinson & Love, 2011). Those findings suggest that featural and relationl categories have fundamentally different learning algorithms, where relational categories rely on explicit representations and thus require working memory and attention, as op...
