Q

Late talkers fell within typical range but when you look at percentage of kids that fell within normal and below on subtest…found that:

A

kids who were late language talkers did perform below the normative expectations on the normal

  • 20% fell below normal
  • 11% typically fell below
  • twice as many who were late talkers fell below normal*
  • 7% of late talkers had speech problems vs. 2% typical

23
Q

dyslexia

A

learning disability characterized w/ problems in word recognition and spelling
-doesn’t mean comprehension problem but if you have difficulty recognizing words, you might have dificulty comprehending tests

24
Q

dyslexia is _______ in nature

A

phonological
-prob w/ phonology doesn’t match up w/ their other cognitive abilities-see uneven profile when look @ language as a whole

25
Q

What is the part of phonology that is most linked to dyslexia?

A

phonological awareness!

  • problems w/ the sound structure of language
  • have hard time w/ rhyme, onset
26
Q

Kids w/ SLI also have problems w/

A

reading and literacy

27
Q

Kids diagnosed w/ both sli and dyslexia did _______ on phonological processing measures

A

worse!

28
Q

if kid only had dyslexia

A

also did worse

-so dyslexia= worse

29
Q

Who did the worst?

A

kids w/ SLI & dyslexia, along w/ kids only having dyslexia

30
Q

Kids w/ only SLI

A

did better-did mildly worse than typically developing

31
Q

Potential underlying causes to SLI

A
  1. sli and cognition-some cognitive skills suppressed but not all
  2. working memory: system used to store small amounts of info briefly while keeping it accessible for mental manipulation/transformation
  3. speed of processing
  4. procedural learning
32
Q

what 3 areas of cognition are different w/ SLI kids?

A
  1. working memory
  2. speed of processing
  3. procedural learning
33
Q

Leonard working memory

A

word and digital recall tasks as having child repeat words and then digits in order they were heard “dog, 1, shoe, 8, 2, apple”

34
Q

woodcock-johnson working memory

A

short sentences to assess limitation in working memory that require sentence processing and concurrent word recall, short sentences introduced, true/false responses elicited following each sentence. these sentences tend to tap vocabulary and basic word knowledge-asked to recall last word

35
Q

woodcock

A

get progressively harder

36
Q

kids w/ sli did poor on

A

woodcock johnson-so working memory deficit in SLI

37
Q

Most of us learn vocab in context

A

in order to get context, have to make sense of it by holding all the info in head-extract meaning while attaching to word

38
Q

the speed of processing hypothesis that seeks to explain deficits in SLI, posits that children with SLI responsd slower than normally developing children AND in tasks w/ multiple steps the slowing in cumulative

A

TRUE

39
Q

Children w/ SLI have been foudn NOT to be impaired in what?

A

reasoning!

40
Q

late talkers and children w/ sli have diffiulty morphology and syntax

A

true

41
Q

sli and dyslexia are not distinct disorders

A

false

42
Q

a sli sometimes coexists w/ autism

A

false; no developmetnal delays

43
Q

Speed of Processing

A

looking to see if it’s a language problem or speed of processing

44
Q

Speed of processing hypothesis

A

children w/ sli respond slower on all types of tasks and its cummulative so each task was slow
-the more steps the slower the processing*

45
Q

nonlinguistic task

A

looking at processing would be everytime you see the #5 on the screen hit the button

46
Q

linguistic task

A

when they say sentence and either the picture matched or did not match- or strike a key when 2 words rhyme

47
Q

speed of processing results

A

kids w/ sli responded more slowly across both conditions-also included a group of kids w/ non specific language impairment and those are kids who have deficits in verbal and nonverbal
-both linguistic and nonlinguistic stimuli are processed slower in kids w/ SLI

48
Q

declarative memory

A

memory bank-stores the conscious and recognizable facts and events-so the things that you learn (monkey is an animal that makes noise and climbs trees)

49
Q

procedural learning

A

riding a bike, producing language because we repeat it over and over again
-important for syntax/grammar and we know that syntax/grammar is impaired in kids w/ SLI

50
Q

procedural deficit hypothesis

A

some people believe that SLI is caused by a procedural deficit
-they thought it could have something to do w/ sequence-so if it’s sequence specific it’s more difficult to learn. for most of us, if we learn a sequence, the more frequently we practice the quicker we get

51
Q

serial reaction time task-has sequence

A

so they had 48 kids w/ SLI-2 control groups: grammar kids were younger kids and age matched kids

  • the kids w/ SLI perform the same as the grammar matched kids on the serial reaction time task.
  • It was a motor seuence so it wasn’t linguistic. They performed worse than their chronological aged peers/age matched.
52
Q

Motor procedural learning task

A

didn’t require a sequence- SLI performed like the age matched and they did better than the grammar matched

53
Q

HSU’s hypothesis

A

supported that it was a procedural deficit

54
Q

implicit learning of word sequence

A

SLI kids did poor on this

55
Q

serial reaction compared to motor

A

seiral: sli kids performed the same as kids w/ same grammatical level but they did worse than their age matched/chronological
vs.
motor procedural tasks: sli age matched did better than sli grammar matched
