Longobardi, Emiddia; Lonigro, Antonia; Laghi, Fiorenzo; O'Neill, Daniela K. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Pragmatics is receiving much attention in both the fields of developmental and clinical psychology; however, there is a dearth of instruments to assess pragmatic abilities specifically among young toddler-age children. The aim of the current study was to test the psychometric properties of the Italian version of the Language Use Inventory…

Pianta, Robert C.; Lipscomb, Daniel; Ruzek, Erik – Child Development, 2021
This study examined indirect associations of MyTeachingPartner coaching with pre-K students' (N = 1,570; 73% low income) school readiness, via improvements of teachers' (N = 393; 47% Black; 41% Head Start) classroom interactions. Data were collected across 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 in 10 urban sites across the eastern United States. The number of…

Gigi An, Zhe; Zeng, Songtian; Chen, Ching-I; Zhao, Hongxia – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2021
The purpose of this study is to examine the bidirectional relationship between children's language development and challenging behaviors as well as the moderating roles of gender and race/ethnicity. We conducted a number of structural equation modeling analyses with a national representative sample (N = 2,462) of Head Start children from the 2014…

Rothou, Kyriakoula M. – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2021
The study explored the inflectional morphological awareness of Greek-speaking poor comprehenders identified in grade 3. The sample consisted of 13 poor comprehenders and 27 good comprehenders. The poor comprehenders were selected from 126 children attended 19 primary schools in metropolitan area of Athens using a cut-off-based approach. All the…

Ulzii, Davaa; Kabot, Susan; Reeve, Christine – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2022
Using electronic tablets to present flash cards for teaching skills is becoming common among practitioners. However, no published study compared the effectiveness of the electronic tablet-based flash cards to paper flash cards for teaching receptive labeling skills. The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of the iPad-based and paper…

Chen, Yi-Jui I.; Chen, Yi-Hsin; Anthony, Jason L.; Erazo, Noé A. – Journal of Psychoeducational Assessment, 2022
The Computer-based Orthographic Processing Assessment (COPA) is a newly developed assessment to measure orthographic processing skills, including rapid perception, access, differentiation, correction, and arrangement. In this study, cognitive diagnostic models were used to test if the dimensionality of the COPA conforms to theoretical expectation,…

Yowaboot, Chadaporn; Sukying, Apisak – English Language Teaching, 2022
There is growing evidence in L2 vocabulary research that digital flashcards facilitate learners' vocabulary learning and development. Several studies also suggest that deliberate vocabulary teaching is critical for successful language learning. Hence, the primary goal of this study was to investigate whether the use of digital flashcards could…

Brignell, Amanda; May, Tamara; Morgan, Angela T.; Williams, Katrina – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
Few studies have examined growth and predictors of receptive vocabulary in children with autism spectrum disorder. Here we aimed to compare receptive vocabulary from 4 to 8 years and identify predictors of receptive vocabulary, at 8 years, in children with and without autism spectrum disorder. Participants were drawn from a nationally…

Bruyneel, Eva; Demurie, Ellen; Warreyn, Petra; Beyers, Wim; Boterberg, Sofie; Bontinck, Chloè; Dewaele, Nele; Roeyers, Herbert – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2019
Background: Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show substantial variability in their language development. Language problems are highly prevalent in these children. In addition, the quality of early language abilities contributes to the overall development of these children and is highly predictive of their adult outcome. Yet, little is…

Neumann, Michelle M.; Worrall, Sheena; Neumann, David L. – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2019
Touch-screen tablets are used in the classroom for assessment. Little is known about the psychometric properties of tablet-based assessments. This study examined the validity and reliability of an expressive and receptive assessment app designed to measure literacy skills. Children (N = 45; 3-5 years) completed the app assessments for alphabet and…

Ece Demir-Lira, Ö.; Applebaum, Lauren R.; Goldin-Meadow, Susan; Levine, Susan C. – Developmental Science, 2019
It is widely believed that reading to preschool children promotes their language and literacy skills. Yet, whether early parent-child book reading is an index of generally rich linguistic input or a unique predictor of later outcomes remains unclear. To address this question, we asked whether naturally occurring parent-child book reading…

Bottema-Beutel, Kristen; Woynaroski, Tiffany; Louick, Rebecca; Stringer Keefe, Elizabeth; Watson, Linda R.; Yoder, Paul J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
We examined differences between children with autism spectrum disorder and typically developing children over an 8-month period in: (a) longitudinal associations between expressive and receptive vocabulary and (b) the extent to which caregiver utterances provided within an "optimal" engagement state mediated the pathway from early…

Baumert, Jürgen; Fleckenstein, Johanna; Leucht, Michael; Köller, Olaf; Möller, Jens – Language Learning, 2020
Throughout Europe, there is a growing trend for students to start learning foreign languages at elementary school. Although policymakers expect early-start programs to boost second language skills, empirical findings are mixed; recent studies have raised many questions. In this large-scale study, we aimed to close some of these gaps. We examined…

Sultana, Nuzhat; Wong, Lena L. N.; Purdy, Suzanne C. – Language, Speech, and Hearing Services in Schools, 2020
Purpose: The current study was designed to investigate the differences in language input related to family factors (maternal level of education [MLE] and socioeconomic level of deprivation [SLD]) and their association with language outcomes in preschoolers. Method: This study used New Zealand SLD and MLE classification systems to examine…

Mason, Rihana S.; Bass, Lori A. – Early Education and Development, 2020
Research Findings Research suggests children from low-income environments have vocabularies that differ from those of their higher-income peers. They may have basic knowledge of many words of which children from higher income environments have acquired sub- or supra-ordinate knowledge. This study sought to determine if children from low-income…
