The Verbal Interaction Of Swedish Language-Disordered Preschool-Children
- 1990

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Results are presented from an ongoing project on Swedish pre-school children with language disorders. The aim of the project is to develop clinically applicable methods for the analysis of grammatical and interactional abilities in children. The methods have been tested in a pilot study of ten dialogues between speech therapists and language disordered children. Results indicate that the grammatical analysis can pinpoint important aspects of development. The interactional analysis describes not only the child's but also the clinician's participation in the dialogue. This provides therapeutic indications as to how the clinician and other adults, e.g. parents and pre-school teachers, can develop their role as a conversational partner in order to promote the child's linguistic and interactional abilities.

Language-Development In Children With Recurrent Acute Otitis-Media During The 1st 3 Years Of Life - Follow-Up-Study From Birth To 7 Years Of Age
- 1993
-
Ingår i: Journal of Laryngology and Otology. - 1748-5460. ; 107:5, s. 407-412
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- From a cohort of 113 children, followed prospectively from birth during the first three years of life regarding different aspects of acute otitis media (AOM), two study groups were selected for the present investigation: 13 children with recurrent AOM (rAOM, i.e. at least six episodes of AOM during a 12–month period), and 29 children without any AOM episode. The purpose of this study was to analyse the possible effects of early onset rAOM on language development as assessed at four and seven years of age at phoniatric and linguistic examinations performed blindly. There were no differences between the two groups on any of the linguistic analyses performed, although the rAOM group manifested a somewhat better performance on auditory discrimination tests at four years of age. The results of the present study show that rAOM during the first three years of life, in otherwise healthy children, does not cause a detectable delay of language development at four and seven years of age.

Developmental sequences in L1 (normal and impaired) and L2 acquisition of Swedish
- 1993

Ingår i: International Journal of Applied Linguistics. - : Wiley. - 0802-6106 .- 1473-4192. ; 3:2, s. 131-157

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This article presents data from an on-going project comparing L1 and L2 acquisition of Swedish syntax. Within the L1 group, normal as well as specifically language impaired (SLI) children are included; the L2 group consists of pre-school immigrant children. The analyses of the data are made within a second language acquisition perspective with a focus on word order. One basic issue within second language acquisition research is the question of natural developmental sequences, i.e. do all learners follow the same development? Another important issue is whether the development in L2 acquisition is the same as or different from L1 acquisition. Both issues are addressed in the study. The results show interesting similarities between the SLI group and the L2 group. The L1 group differed from the other two groups in important ways. The findings suggest that there is no fundamental difference between L1 and L2 acquisition of syntax, as has been claimed.

Context And Comprehension - A Neurolinguistic And Interactional Approach To The Understanding Of Semantic Pragmatic Disorder
- 1993
-
Ingår i: European Journal of Disorders of Communication. - : Wiley. - 0963-7273. ; 28:2, s. 117-140
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In the present study we provide thorough descriptions of two children with a semantic-pragmatic disorder, a subgroup within the group of specific and severe developmental language disorders, from a neurolinguistic and interactional perspective. We argue that the pragmatic problems, at least in these two girls, are most probably secondary to their semantic'conceptual deficit. If sufficient contextual cues are provided comprehension is improved and, as a consequence, the pragmatic problems are reduced.

On language production in severe developmental language disorders and the concept of linguistic levels. A longitudinal study of ten children with severe development language disorders
- 1993

Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Logopedics & Phoniatrics. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0803-5032. ; 18:1, s. 15-28

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- On the basis of a neurolinguistic assessment procedure (Holmberg and Sahlen, 1986) ten children with severe and specific developmental language disorders (DLD) were studied over a four-year period. Initially they all showed global language problems which, in the course of development, became more specific. Although there were considerable differences in the neurolinguistic profiles, some general patterns were hypothesized. The linguistic analysis revealed some speech production correlates to these patterns. The results of the segmental phonological analysis and the grammatical analysis, however, did not reflect the differences between the neurolinguistic patterns. We argue that other, more dynamic aspects of language production, i.e. sentence prosody and speech rate, may better discriminate between children with different neurolinguistic patterns. A process-oriented approach to grammatical error analysis and the concept of linguistic levels are discussed.

Patterns of vulnerability of language in children with severe developmental language disorders
- 1992
-
Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Logopedics & Phoniatrics. - : Informa UK Limited. - 0803-5032. ; 17:2, s. 77-85
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Language disordered children with receptive language problems have worse outcome and also more severe problems in other areas of language than children with isolated expressive problems according to “the hypothesis of hierarchical vulnerability” formulated by Bishop and Edmundson (1987). We studied ten children with specific and severe developmental language disorders (DLD) longitudinally and found that the hypothesis was tenable with regard to the predictions about outcome. We also found that among children in the phonologic-syntactic subgroup (Rapin and Allen, 1983), children with poor comprehension and poor lexical-semantic ability had the most severe problems of syntax. Phonological production at ages 5 or 6 was not correlated to phonological production at age 8. Oral motor function, however, turned out to be an important prognostic factor for phonological outcome. The present findings call for revised methodological routines and therapeutical priorities regarding children with severe DLD.

Severe Developmental Language Disorder - Reading And Spelling - A Longitudinal-Study Of 2 Nonidentical Twins
- 1990
-
Ingår i: Reading and Writing. - 0922-4777. ; 2:4, s. 269-295
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Linguistic awareness i.e. the ability to identify phonemes, to segment words into syllables and to rhyme is highly correlated with reading/spelling proficiency. Children with severe developmental language disorders DLD (syntagmatic type) have been shown to specifically lack linguistic awareness. Two non-identical twin boys with severe, specific DLD were studied longitudinally with respect to their linguistic, neurolinguistic and pragmatic development. In spite of poor linguistic awareness, the boys acquired normal reading/spelling skills. This might be due to the early and massive language training they were given. However, the boys differ considerably in some aspects of reading and spelling performance. These findings are discussed with reference to their different neurolinguistic and pragmatic profiles.
