Normal but Different: Autistic Adolescents Who Score Within Normal Ranges on Standardized Language Tests Produce Frequent Linguistic Irregularities in Spontaneous Discourse Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-09-23 Emily R Zane, Ruth B Grossman
Background and aimsA substantial minority of autistic individuals score within typical ranges on standard language tests, suggesting that autism does not necessarily affect language acquisition. This idea is reflected in current diagnostic criteria for autism, wherein language impairment is no longer included. However, some work has suggested that probing autistic speakers’ language carefully may reveal

“I need them for my autism, but I don’t know why”: Exploring the friendship experiences of autistic children in UK primary schools Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-09-07 Laura Fox, Kathryn Asbury
Background and aimsAutistic children can experience challenges in making and maintaining friendships, and middle childhood (ages 6–12) may be particularly challenging as social networks become more complex. However, a large proportion of research into these experiences is based on adult reports or focuses on the experiences of adolescents, meaning that the voices of younger children are absent. Due

How do children with language disorder perceive their peer interactions? A qualitative investigation Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-30 Hannah Cullen, Sarah Billingham, Michelle C. St Clair
Background and aimsPeer interaction difficulties are often elevated amongst children with language disorders, yet the mechanisms underlying these difficulties are unclear. Previous research indicates that poor conflict management, social withdrawal, emotion regulation difficulties, and reduced prosocial behavior may contribute to peer interaction difficulties. However, this research often uses adult

Word learning by children with developmental language disorder: Identifying gaps in our understanding of spaced retrieval effects Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-30 Laurence B. Leonard, Patricia Deevy, Justin B. Kueser
Background and aimsCurrent evidence shows that children with developmental language disorder (DLD) benefit from spaced retrieval during word learning activities. Word recall is quite good relative to recall with alternative word learning procedures. However, recall on an absolute basis can be improved further; many studies report that fewer than two-thirds of the words are learned, even with the assistance

Is language impaired in Spanish-speaking children with autism spectrum disorder level 1? Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-28 Alberto Sánchez Pedroche, Mario Valera-Pozo, Angelica Mateus Moreno, Maria Fernanda Lara Díaz, Eva Aguilar-Mediavilla, Daniel Adrover-Roig
The current diagnostic criteria for the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) include the possibility to specify concomitant language difficulties.PurposeOur main aim was to explore whether children with ASD-Level 1 (ASD-L1) present difficulties in the acquisition of structural language, as little work has been done in this regard so far. As a secondary aim we evaluated the degree to which the potential language

How word meaning structure relates to executive functioning and theory of mind in children with developmental language disorder: A multiple case study Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-21 Thomas F. Camminga, Daan Hermans, Eliane Segers, Constance T.W.M. Vissers
Background and aimsMany children with developmental language disorder (DLD) have difficulties in executive functioning (EF) and theory of mind (ToM). These difficulties might be explained by the theory that children's conceptual understanding changes over five stages of word meaning structure, from concrete and context-dependent to abstract and precise. We present a multiple case study examining how

Sibling relationships and parental interventions to sibling bullying during COVID-19: A qualitative comparison of British and Turkish families of autistic adolescents Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-02 Emre Deniz, Laura Fox, Kathryn Asbury, Umar Toseeb
Background and aimsDespite its high potential for affecting sibling relationships, few studies have explored the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on this important family dynamic. Of these, the reported evidence has been inconsistent across cultures and lacks cross-cultural comparability. For the first time, we investigated cross-cultural variability in the impact of COVID-19, and the restrictions associated

Reasoning about self and others: A dynamic process Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-08-02 C H Geveke, H J J M Veenker, H W Steenbeek
BackgroundIt can be very challenging for practitioners to talk with autistic children, especially when the conversation calls for self-regulation. Self-regulation is inextricably linked to awareness of oneself and others in social contexts. Encouraging the need for autonomy could help increase self-awareness and awareness of others in social events, which in turn could strengthen self-regulation. However

Frequency and characteristics of echoes and self-repetitions in minimally verbal and verbally fluent autistic individuals Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-07-25 Pauline Maes, Chelsea La Valle, Helen Tager-Flusberg
Background and aimsNongenerative speech is the rote repetition of words or phrases heard from others or oneself. The most common manifestations of nongenerative speech are immediate and delayed echolalia, which are a well-attested clinical feature and a salient aspect of atypical language use in autism. However, there are no current estimates of the frequency of nongenerative speech, and the individual

Background and aims Autistic pupils have the right to be heard in matters concerning their education and to be active agents in shaping their school experiences. Despite this, educational policies and research have rarely included the voices of autistic children, failing to identify what they consider to be beneficial and meaningful in their own education. This study aimed to (i) summarise existing

Enhanced sensitivity to pitch perception and its possible relation to language acquisition in autism Autism & Developmental Language Impairments (IF 2.5) Pub Date : 2024-05-16 Megumi Hisaizumi, Digby Tantam
Background and aimsFascinations for or aversions to particular sounds are a familiar feature of autism, as is an ability to reproduce another person's utterances, precisely copying the other person's prosody as well as their words. Such observations seem to indicate not only that autistic people can pay close attention to what they hear, but also that they have the ability to perceive the finer details

Background & aimsLanguage abilities of autistic children and children at elevated likelihood for autism (EL-siblings) are highly heterogeneous, and many of them develop language deficits. It is as of yet unclear why language abilities of autistic children and EL-siblings vary, although an interaction of multiple influential factors is likely at play. In this review, we describe research articles that
