This study aimed to explore whether early developmental abilities are related to future executive function (EF) in children with motor delays. Fourteen children with motor delays (Mean age = 10.76, SD = 2.55) were included from a larger study. Object interaction and developmental outcomes (Bayley-III) were evaluated at baseline and 3, 6, and 12…

We investigated the early sociocognitive battery (ESB), a novel measure of preverbal social communication skills, in children with autism participating in the Paediatric Autism Communication Trial-Generalised (PACT-G). The associations between ESB scores, language and autism symptoms were assessed in 249 children aged 2-11 years. The results show…

Ford, Andrea L. B.; Fleury, Veronica P. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2021
Researchers seeking to make valid conclusions about engagement for young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) must first determine the reliability of estimates obtained across the conditions sampled. Working from that premise, we conducted a secondary data analysis of shared book readings between caregivers and their children with ASD,…

Bottema-Beutel, Kristen; Kim, So Yoon; Crowley, Shannon; Yoder, Paul J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Cross-lagged panel analysis was used to examine associations between two joint engagement variables; higher order supported joint engagement and higher order supported joint engagement that co-occurs with caregiver's follow-in talk (higher order supported joint engagement + follow-in), and expressive and receptive vocabulary in a group of young…

Waddington, Hannah; van der Meer, Larah; Sigafoos, Jeff; Whitehouse, Andrew – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Contemporary parent-implemented early intervention programs for children with autism spectrum disorder usually incorporate a range of techniques with different theoretical underpinnings. While research suggests that parents often learn to implement interventions with an acceptable degree of overall fidelity, there is limited research into parent…

López Pérez, David; Tomalski, Przemyslaw; Radkowska, Alicja; Ballieux, Haiko; Moore, Derek G. – First Language, 2021
Efficient visual exploration in infancy is essential for cognitive and language development. It allows infants to participate in social interactions by attending to faces and learning about objects of interest. Visual scanning of scenes depends on a number of factors, and early differences in efficiency are likely contributing to differences in…

McDaniel, Jena; Yoder, Paul; Woynaroski, Tiffany; Watson, Linda R. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2018
Purpose: Correlates of receptive-expressive vocabulary size discrepancies may provide insights into why language development in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) deviates from typical language development and ultimately improve intervention outcomes. Method: We indexed receptive-expressive vocabulary size discrepancies of 65 initially…

Vouloumanos, Athena; Curtin, Suzanne – Cognitive Science, 2014
Orienting biases for speech may provide a foundation for language development. Although human infants show a bias for listening to speech from birth, the relation of a speech bias to later language development has not been established. Here, we examine whether infants' attention to speech directly predicts expressive vocabulary. Infants…

Ellawadi, Allison Bean; Weismer, Susan Ellis – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2014
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine whether scoring of the gestures point, give, and show were correlated across measurement tools used to assess gesture production in children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Method: Seventy-eight children with ASD between the ages of 23 and 37 months participated. Correlational analyses…

Majorano, Marinella; Vihman, Marilyn M.; DePaolis, Rory A. – Language Learning and Development, 2014
The early relationship between children's emerging articulatory abilities and their capacity to process speech input was investigated, following recent studies with English-learning infants. Twenty-six monolingual Italian-learning infants were tested at 6 months (no consistent and stable use of consonants, or vocal motor schemes [VMS]) and at the…

Pry, R.; Petersen, A. F.; Baghdadli, A. – Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 2009
It is well established that language development in children with autism is disturbed in a number of ways, and evidence is accumulating that their emerging linguistic skills may be related to interactive competences such as joint attention, imitation and certain aspects of play as has been found in normally developing children. The present study…

Murray, Donna S.; Creaghead, Nancy A.; Manning-Courtney, Patricia; Shear, Paula K.; Bean, Judy; Prendeville, Jo-Anne – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2008
The relationship between initiation of and response to joint attention and components of receptive and expressive language in 20 children with autism between the ages of 3 and 5 years were examined. Receptive language skills were assessed using the "Mullen Scales of Early Learning" (MSEL). Expressive language skills were evaluated by examining…
