Gonzalez, Sandy L.; Campbell, Julie M.; Marcinowski, Emily C.; Michel, George F.; Coxe, Stefany; Nelson, Eliza L. – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Prior work has found links between consistency in toddler handedness for the fine motor skill role-differentiated bimanual manipulation (RDBM), and language development at 2 and 3 years of age. The current study investigated whether consistency in handedness from 18 to 24 months (N = 90) for RDBM predicts receptive and expressive language…

Stadtmiller, Elizabeth; Lindner, Katrin; Süss, Assunta; Gagarina, Natalia – Journal of Child Language, 2022
In error analyses using sentence repetition data, most authors focus on word types of omissions. The current study considers serial order in omission patterns independent of functional categories. Data was collected from Russian and German sentence repetition tasks performed by 53 five-year-old bilingual children. Number and positions of word…

Nelson, Nickola Wolf; Plante, Elena; Anderson, Michele; Applegate, E. Brooks – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This was an investigation of the dimensionality of oral and written language to test the hypothesis that a two-factor model with sound/word and sentence/discourse language levels would best fit language and literacy data for a population-based sample in the school-age years. Method: A stratified secondary data set of 1,500 participants…
