Study Summary
This broad aim of this clinical study is to assess the hypothesis that morphological and phonological deficits are linked by a broader deficit in sequential pattern learning. This hypothesis applies to learning in general, but is especially critical as an avenue for developing earlier assessments and more powerful interventions for children with developmental language disorder (DLD; AKA specific language impairment). Other populations, such as at-risk toddlers, may also benefit from this new approach.
Primary Outcome
Learning will be assessed during the generalization phase. First, each toddler will be given a difference score resulting from mean listening time for consistent minus mean listening time for inconsistent test trials. It is predicted that toddlers will show increased learning of the OR rule in the non-referential condition. Higher vocabulary on the CDI will correspond with weaker performance.
