Nov 1, 2023 · Language acquisition is robust, but there are also substantial individual differences (Donnelly and Kidd, 2020).Some children experience language difficulties that are secondary to other conditions, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or traumatic brain injury, but there are also children who have severe language problems in the absence of a clear cause (Leonard, 2014).
In the normal brain, the resting-state language network has been shown to encompass not only classical language processing regions, such as Broca’s and Wernicke’s areas, but also adjoining left prefrontal, temporal and parietal regions, including some subcortical structures, such as the caudate bilaterally and the left putamen/globus pallidus and subthalamic nuclei (Muller & Meyer, 2014 ...
Summary. The last decade has produced an explosion in neuroscience research examining young children’s early processing of language. Noninvasive, safe functional brain measurements have now been proven feasible for use with children starting at birth. The phonetic level of language is especially accessible to experimental studies that ...
Abstract. Language disorders are highly heritable and are influenced by complex interactions between genetic and environmental factors. Despite more than twenty years of research, we still lack critical understanding of the biological underpinnings of language. This review provides an overview of the genetic landscape of developmental language ...
Jul 9, 2018 · Language development requires both basic cognitive mechanisms for learning language and a rich social context from which learning takes off. Disruptions in learning mechanisms, processing ...
Disruptions in learning mechanisms, processing abilities, and/or social interactions increase the risks associated with social exclusion or developmental delays. Given the complexity of language processes, a multilevel approach is proposed where both cognitive mechanisms, genetic and environmental factors need to be probed together with their ...
