Abstract:

We propose a framework for conceptualizing learning in children with de velopmental language disorder that focuses on domain general cognitive m echanisms that are central to the disorder, such as sequential pattern l earning. In this talk, I will present empirical data from a series of st udies that incorporate linguistic and articulatory measures of language production along with behavioral and kinematic measures of manual action (i.e., manual gestures, timed hand movements, and musical rhythmic sequ ences). Two broad themes will be emphasized. First, I will provide findi ngs addressing how indices of motor control, including variability and s tructure of movement, relate to representations of linguistic units in t ypical and atypical learners. The second theme focuses on sequential pat tern learning as a core feature underlying motor, phonological, and gram matical development and disorder. We propose that children (and adults) with developmental language disorder demonstrate a deficit in the organi zation of sequences related to pattern induction in learning.
