Chenausky, Karen V.; Verdes, Alison; Shield, Aaron – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2022
Purpose: Manual sign is a common alternative mode of communication taught to children with childhood apraxia of speech (CAS). Gesture use is positively related to later increases in vocabulary and syntactic complexity in typical development, but there is little evidence supporting the use of manual sign for children with CAS. We sought to identify…

Hand, Lauren Sophie; Liu, Charlotte Ka Yun; Hardman, Gemma; Mahon, Merle – Deafness & Education International, 2023
Deaf and hard-of-hearing (DHH) children with cochlear implants (CwCIs) constitute a heterogeneous population. A multitude of factors influence their spoken language development. There is evidence that CwCIs follow similar trajectories in language development as typically developing (TD) children but there is a lack of research on specific types of…

Rijke, Wouter J.; Vermeulen, Anneke M.; Willeboer, Christina; Knoors, Harry E. T.; Langereis, Margreet C.; van der Wilt, Gert Jan – Journal of Deaf Studies and Deaf Education, 2023
We investigated 34 deaf and hard-of-hearing children with hearing devices aged 8-12 years and 30 typical hearing peers. We used the capability approach to assess well-being in both groups through interviews. Capability is "the real freedom people have to do and to be what they have reason to value." Speech perception, phonology, and…

Caroline Gaudreau; Amanda Delgado; Rachel Confair-Jones; Sydney Flambaum; Kathy Hirsh-Pasek; K. Lee Raby; Mary Dozier; Roberta Michnick Golinkoff – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Research suggests foster children are at risk for poor language skills. One intervention, attachment and biobehavioral catch-up (ABC), was shown to successfully improve not only young foster children's attachment to their parents, but also their receptive vocabulary skills (Bernard et al., 2017; Raby et al., 2019). Given that language acquisition…
