Download or read book Language Development and Disorders in Spanish speaking Children written by Alejandra Auza Benavides and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prominent researchers from the US, Mexico, Chile, Colombia and Spain contribute experimental reports on language development of children who are acquiring Spanish. The chapters cover a wide range of dimensions in acquisition: comprehension and production; monolingualism and bilingualism; typical development, children who are at risk and children with language disorders, phonology, semantics, and morphosyntax. These studies will inform linguistic theory development in clinical linguistics as well as offer insights on how language works in relation to cognitive functions that are associated with when children understand or use language. The unique data from child language offer perspectives that cannot be drawn from adult language. The first part is dedicated to the acquisition of Spanish as a first or second language by typically-developing children, the second part offers studies on children who are at risk of language delays, and the third part focuses on children with specific language impairment, disorders and syndromes.
Download or read book Communication Disorders in Spanish Speakers written by José G. Centeno and published by Multilingual Matters. This book was released on 2007 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book bridges the gap in the literature on Hispanic individuals for student clinicians and professionals in Speech-Language Pathology/Speech Therapy. It links empirical and theoretical bases to evidence-based practices for child and adult Spanish users. This volume provides both students and licensed professionals in speech-language pathology much-needed multidisciplinary bases to implement clinical services with Spanish speakers. Researchers and practitioners from Speech-Language Pathology, Neurolinguistics, Neuropsychology, Education, and Clinical Psychology provide theoretical and empirical grounds to develop evidence-based clinical procedures for monolingual Spanish and bilingual Spanish-English children and adults with communication disorders.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speech-language assessment of bilingual Spanish-English speaking children in the United States has been difficult for researchers and clinicians because there are few assessment measures that have been comprehensively studied with this population, and none have shown to be optimal. In recent years, additional assessment measures have been recommended for this population, but few studies have examined the effectiveness of these measures to accurately differentiate children with typical language from children with language impairments. This study examined whether a specific assessment measure is best in differentiating typical language learners and children with language impairment; and whether there are a group of assessment measures that collectively best differentiate the TL and LI groups of children. Selected language assessment measures were administered to 30 Mexican-American 4 and 5 year old bilingual Spanish-English speaking children (15 TL and 15 LI) to determine the predictive value of each assessment measure, as well as which group of predictors can appropriately identify LI and TL children. Using a multiple linear regression analysis, this study found that all of the assessment measures except the dynamic assessment task and NWR English task can be used to assist in the identification of language impairment. Spanish standardized assessments were highly discriminating and strongly correlated with language status. Other assessment measures including the English standardized assessments, language sample, parent interview, and NWR Spanish tasks were highly discriminating and moderately correlated with language status. The results from this study suggest that a parent interview, Spanish and English standardized assessment, and language sample can be administered as a comprehensive battery to identify children with language impairment.

Download or read book Hispanic Child Languages written by John Grinstead and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains 12 papers contributed by leading scholars in the field of language development, studying variants of the languages which originated on the Iberian peninsula. The contributors examine language development in both typically-developing and language-impaired populations who are learning language in diverse learning conditions, including language contact, as well as monolingual and bilingual Spanish, Catalan, Galician and Euskera. This expansion and diversification of the database for studying language development is important because it creates new opportunities for testing theoretical claims. Our contributors reconsider theoretical claims relating to the purported adult-like nature of young children’s grammars. While some conclude, for example, that children in Mexico possess very adult-like semantic-pragmatic competence in the domain of the pragmatic implicatures associated with existential quantifiers, others conclude that, in particular sociolinguistic registers of Chilean Spanish, children are late to develop adult-like competence in plural marking. Taken together, the contents of the volume illustrate how the linguistic diversity found in the distinct learning conditions in which language develops offers a wealth of opportunities to further our understanding of linguistic and non-linguistic cognitive development.
Download or read book Development of a Language Impairment Screener for Spanish Speaking Children written by M. Adelaida Restrepo and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this study is to develop a Spanish language screening measure that (a) is valid and reliable for the purpose of identifying Spanish-speaking (SS) children at risk for Language Impairment (LI), (b) is valid and reliable across different Spanish dialects, different socioeconomic groups, and different ethnicities, (c) uses a Spanish LI model rather than an English language model, and (d) is easy to administer and score by paraprofessionals in schools in the United States (U.S.). The screening measure is intended as a universal screening instrument in pre-kindergarten and kindergarten and as a screening tool for speech-language pathologists in first through second grade students referred by teachers, physicians, other professionals, or parents. Early and accurate identification of LI risk will lead to timely evaluation, identification and treatment of LI. This will result in increased academic success by ELLs (English Language Learners) that will positively impact academic achievement in U.S. schools. For this presentation the authors report on outcomes from the first development phase of the research. This research phase focuses on developing items in three tasks: (a) rapid automatized naming, (b) sentence repetition, and (c) a morphological cloze task. In summary, the three tasks designed to differentiate groups are working as hypothesized, leading to significant differences between TD (typical development) and LI groups. Further, specific items in each task are also differentiating the groups, and the selection for the best six items reflect large effect sizes in each subtask. Of the three tasks, morphological subtests for clitics and prepositions in kindergarten and preposition and articles in first grade show the greatest potential, along with sentence repetition.
