IJLCD - Six questions, eight years later: identifying early predictors of language development
Description
In this podcast we chat with Loretta Gasparini about the research she led on finding a robust predictor tool for persistent language disorders. The aim of this research is to identify young children who are likely to have persisting language difficulties, so that we can recruit them into research, build a strong evidence base and ultimately support them to thrive.
The paper is:
Identifying early language predictors: A replication of Gasparini et al. (2023) confirming applicability in a general population. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/1460-6984.13086
Loretta Gasparini, Daisy A. Shepherd, Jing Wang, Melissa Wake, Angela T. Morgan
This paper was awarded the International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders 2024 Editors' Prize.
