Study Summary
This trial is testing whether children with language disorders have difficulty learning patterns, and whether this impacts their speech.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for toddlers with no medical or developmental concerns, normal speech, social, and motor development, dominant exposure to English from infancy, normal hearing, and expressive vocabulary above the 10th percentile. Toddlers with hearing or intellectual impairments, autism, reported developmental disorders or significant motor impairment cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if there's a link between morphological and phonological deficits in language learning by observing toddlers' sensitivity to phonological rules. It aims to improve assessments and interventions for children with developmental language disorder (DLD) or specific language impairment (SLI).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves observational studies of toddler behavior rather than medical interventions, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participation may involve time commitment and interaction with researchers.
