Study Summary

This trial aims to optimize feedback-based learning in children with DLD by manipulating timing & level of learner's involvement in error correction. Aims: determine effect of timing on learning & compare learning when feedback promotes active self-correction vs passive exposure to corrections.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking children aged 8-12 with developmental language disorder (DLD), having an IQ score above 70 and specific language test scores. It excludes those with hearing loss, neurological issues like ADHD or autism, traumatic brain injury, or color blindness.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests how different types of feedback affect learning in children with DLD. It varies the timing (immediate vs delayed) and involvement (active self-correction vs passive exposure to corrections) during tasks designed to enhance language skills through tailored feedback.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves educational interventions rather than medical treatments, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be varying levels of frustration or fatigue experienced by participants due to the nature of the learning tasks.
