In unvoiced plosives children with specificlanguageimpairment demonstrated more often substitutions.
2
Children with specificlanguageimpairment had slightly more severe articulation deficits.
3
Of each matched pair one child had a hearing impairment, the other a specificlanguageimpairment.
4
The prenatal and perinatal risk factors likely to be associated with specificlanguageimpairment (SLI) were examined in this study.
5
Conclusion: Articulation deficits in children with hearing impairment are slightly less than in children with specificlanguageimpairment, but follow the same pattern.
6
ATP2C2 is a known candidate gene for specificlanguageimpairment and is postulated to have neurobiological significance in memory-related circuits.
7
Background: The present retrospective evaluation study examined treatment efficacy in preschool children with severe specificlanguageimpairments.
