Ostertag, Curtis; Reynolds, Jess E.; Dewey, Deborah; Landman, Bennett; Huo, Yuankai; Lebel, Catherine – Developmental Science, 2022
Reading disorders are common in children and can impact academic success, mental health, and career prospects. Reading is supported by network of interconnected left hemisphere brain regions, including temporo-parietal, occipito-temporal, and inferior-frontal circuits. Poor readers often show hypoactivation and reduced gray matter volumes in this…

Rah, Yu Jin; Kim, Jiyun; Lee, Sang Ah – Child Development, 2022
Children's spatial mapping starts out particularly sensitive to 3D wall-like boundaries and develops over early childhood to flexibly include other boundary types. This study investigated whether spatial boundaries influence children's episodic memory, as in adults, and whether this effect is modulated by boundary type. Eighty-one Korean children…

The paper focuses on the role of the body and place in the emergence of young children's…

Su, Yinshan; Chen, Yuejia; Huang, Jin – Australasian Journal of Early Childhood, 2022
The body is the very basis of children's self-growth and their understanding of the world. However, children's body experiences of growing up have rarely been studied. This paper uses a hermeneutic phenomenological approach to study the body experience of 35 kindergarten children aged 5-6 from Nanjing, China. We found that children's body…

Zinsser, Katherine M.; Silver, H. Callie; Shenberger, Elyse R.; Jackson, Velisha – Review of Educational Research, 2022
Young children (birth to age 5) are more likely to be expelled or suspended than school-aged children, but we know comparatively little about the precursors to and prevention of exclusion in early childhood settings. Furthermore, what research has been conducted has not been systematically synthesized to inform policy and funding decisions. The…

Interoception, the eighth sensory system, connects emotional regulation, perspective-taking, and problem solving- foundational skills needed for future success. There has been limited research on interventions with children encompassing interoceptive awareness, the awareness and perception of sensations from inside the body. The information…

Evans, Rebecca Jane; Dean, Bronya; Byett, Fergus – British Journal of Music Education, 2022
Despite a global interest in the musical experiences of young children, the everyday musical lives of young New Zealanders remain unexamined. Using data collected through the Growing Up in New Zealand longitudinal study, we explore the early musical experiences of approximately 6,800 infants and toddlers. Data collected from the primary caregivers…

Gerwin, Katelyn L.; Walsh, Bridget; Christ, Sharon L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: In our earlier study, we found that overall accuracy on nonword repetition (NWR) lacked the specificity to differentiate among groups of children who stutter (CWS) with and without concomitant speech sound and/or language disorders and children who do not stutter (CWNS). The aim of this study was to determine whether NWR error…

Keesey-Phelan, Stephanie H.; Axe, Judah B.; Williams, Ashley L. – Analysis of Verbal Behavior, 2022
Problem-solving strategies, such as visual imagining and self-questioning, may assist children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in recalling past events. In the current study, at the start of each session, a 7-year-old boy with ASD engaged in a novel activity with a behavior therapist who took pictures of the activity. Ninety minutes later, a…

Strouse, Gabrielle A.; Samson, Jennifer E. – Child Development, 2021
Young children often learn less from video than face-to-face presentations. Meta-regression models were used to examine the average size of this difference (video deficit) and investigate moderators. An average deficit of about half of a standard deviation was reported across 122 independent effect sizes from 59 reports, involving children ages…

This prospective longitudinal study examined face perception in infants who develop ASC (N = 22, female = 5, 100% White) compared with typically developing infants (N = 131, female = 65, 55.6%…

Pearl Han Li; Tamar Kushnir – Developmental Science, 2025
Moral decisions often involve dilemmas: cases of conflict between competing obligations. In two studies (N = 204), we ask whether children appreciate that reasoning through dilemmas involves acknowledging that there is no single, simple solution. In Study 1, 5- to 8-year-old US children were randomly assigned to a Moral Dilemma condition, in which…
