William's Syndrome Flashcards
Karmiloff-Smith et al. 1997
Better than MA match, but vocab + syntax not age appropriate, not unimpaired. Authors propose the phonology-semantics imbalance
Thomas et al. 2001
VMA matched, poor at applying past tense to regulars and irregulars - original said problem with just irregulars. Words fine and rules okay?
Cromer 1994
Language needs to be completely unimpaired for a double dissociation - difficulties in obtaining a pure meausre
Brock 2007
Conservative hypothesis - any unusual characteristics of language can be explained as a consequence of other nonlinguistic features
Even with MA match, vocab + syntax not age appropriate
