School Age Sources Flashcards
Waber 2003
Performance on normed tests do not show how the child performs in the classroom
Measure of discrete skills –doesn’t look at integration of skills
ASHA 2001
- Reading and writing interact and are reciprocal
- It’s necessary that TX targets both
- 1/2 of all poor readers have hx of s-l disorders
- at some point spoken lang dis will manifest in literacy
Frederici 2006
“The neural basis of language development and it’s impairment”
- Lang parts of the brain ae activated in a similar way in adults and very young children
- main difference: processing time is slower in children
- Functional lang abnormalities are accompanied by structural abnormalities in inferior frontal/temporal regions
- Early insufficiencies in processing of info can lead to LI
Shaywitz & Shaywitz
LD: difficulties w/ accurate a/o fluent word recognition, poor spelling, poor decoding, usually from phon processing deficit
–DYSLEXIA = familial
»missing awareness of phonological representations
»In Kids: impaired rate of reading, spelling, less automatic/effortful/slow
»>Adults: takes longer to decode unfamiliar words
Dapretto 2005
(Understanding emotions in others mirror neuron dysfunction in children with ASD)
Mirror neuron system (MNS) are activated when they perform an action/observe
someone else performing the same action.
–ASD presented w/ faces of dif emotions
FINDINGS: early dysfunction in MNS could be at the core of the social deficits in ASD
Dethorne and Schaefer 2004
linguistic ability most likely influences non-verbal IQ measures to some degree
- nonverbal IQ relies heavily on visual processing skills, fluid reasoning
- Recommend the UNIT and TONI-3 for kids with LI
- Consider: with RL deficit, select a test that doesn’t have verbal instructions
Volden 2004
- NVLD: poorer math than reading, problems in visuospatial processing, processing of novel, meaningful, and/or complex material
- Highly fluent, verbal speakers. Uses vocab and appropriate syntax
- Superior lexicons but semantic understanding is shallow
- as child gets older, comprehension of higher level lang diminishes
- pragmatics = seriously impaired
Catts Fey Zeng Tomblin 2001
“Estimating the risk of future reading difficulties in K kids”
5 Variables Predicted Probability of RD in 2nd Grade:
a. Letter Identification
b. Sentence Imitation
c. Mother’s Education
d. Deletion
e. RAN
-For kids who are at risk but don’t qualify for SLP services, SLP should show teachers how to incorporate PA into curriculum
Schuele, C.M & Boudreau, D.. (2008).
“PA tx” –teaching reading
-k-1st grd is when children mainly learn PA. TX should be before the child is too far behind
Follow hierarchy
-TARGET SEGMENTING AND BLENDING
Carroll and snowling 2004
“lang and phon skills w/ high risk of reading difficulty”
-Kids at risk of reading diff (RD) had avg vocab, poor input/output speech processing, phon learing, PA, RD
= deficits in phonological representations
-kids with expressive speech impairments in absence of lang problems are at high risk of reading difficulties & on continuum w/ at risk dyslexia
Nation Marshall and snowling 2002
“Phon&semantics in picture naming & RD”
- in picture naming, Dys made more errors on longer words (semantic & phon errors)
- picture naming is sensitive to phonological and semantic skills
Rispens and baker
.”Non-word repetition-pSTM & phon. rep in LI/RD”
- pSTM & phon reps significantly contribute to NWR (although these predictors depends on age)
- STM capacity (measured in digit span) & phon rep (measured w/ discrim tasks) are independently important for NWR
Catts et al 2002
“role of speed of processing RAN and PA in reading achievement”
- Many kids with RD have deficit in speed of processing
- assessed reading achievement, PA, rapid naming
Wolf and bowers 2002
Double Deficit Theory
-Dysl have PHON PROCESSING DEFICIT (Resulting in naming difficulties) and
SPEED OF PROCESSING DEFICIT (RAN) (deficits in Word identification, fluency, and comprehension)
-also associated with decoding of nonwords
Morris, R., Lovett, M., Wolf, M. (2010)
(same Wolf, M. as double deficit theory)
- Retrieval, Automaticity, Vocabulary, Engagement, Orthography)
- Emphasis on phon. decoding & incorporating orthography, semantics, syntax, morph
Chard et al. (2002)
-labored, inefficient readers spend most of their resources reading words rather than understanding content.
-Repetition=
multiplexposures to same words=
reduced processing load=
more fluent reading & stronger orth reps
Scott, C.M, & Balthazar, C.H. (2010)
- higher order Lang is req in texts..
- LI have more difficulty summarizing, recalling, and otherwise processing academic texts
- Complex noun phrases is a critical grammatical strategy for expository writing
Laing, S.P. and Kamhi, A.G., (2002)
- explanatory inferences (draw causal connections bw ideas) = strong relationship to RC
- Think-Aloud protocols for inferencing
- TAP requires student to revisit propositions, which maintains them longer in WM and aids EF (promotes self-monitoring of RC)
Karasinski, C.K & Weismer, S.E. (2010)
-8th grders with Lang comp, WM and world knowledge deficits had decreased understanding of implicit Inferences
Bauminger, N., Edelsztein, H.S., Morash, J. (2005).
Social information processing and emotional understanding in children with LD.
Language Formulation Skills impacted social communication/peer relationships
- limited capacity for emotional understanding, perspective taking
- encodes fewer social cues, recalling more irrelevant info and problem solving
Colozzo et al (2011).
- LI”s fic nar are short, lack content/focus, and absent of key story grammar elements
- discrepancy b/w content (SGM) & form (clausal density), likely a limited processing capacity
- ***tx should focus on narrative content and the required syntax
McCabe, A., Bliss, L., Barra, G., Bennett, M. (2008)
- personal narratives are good to use in lang assessment
- tx should establish structure
- once structure’s established, work on elaborating/expanding
- personal nar tx: modified SGM -promote better social interactions
Justice. & kaderavek 2004
Outlines major goals of pre-literacy:
- PA
- Print Concepts
- Alphabet Knowledge
- Narrative/Literate Language
Nippold, M.A., et al (2005)a
- Analyzed microstructure-oral expository discourse
- Clauses
Nippold, M., Ward-Lonergan, J., Fanning, J. (2005).b.
- Persuasive writing require sophisticated use of syntax semantics and pragmatics
- Syntax: 11 y/o Should be performing close to an adult level ( IC NC ADVC)
- Semantics: Adverbial conjuncts, substituting more sophisticated varieties
- Pragmatic: Approach controversy in a flexible manner. (Consistent with that expending knowledgebase) -Consider different points of you
Locascio, G. et al (2010)
- EF plays a role in RC
- kids who have good word rec but have RCD had EFD in planning
- strategic planning in RC is important
- reduced WM capacity can show up in difficulty recalling details and integrating info
- could explain a discrepancy in AC v RC
