Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Allison S Aaron"
- Allison S Aaron's research primarily focuses on the interplay between rhythmic processing and language skills in children, particularly examining how rhythm influences language development in those with developmental language disorder (DLD) compared to typically developing children.
- In her study examining motor tempi, she found that children with DLD exhibit specific weaknesses in rhythm tasks, which are linked to their expressive grammar skills, suggesting that improving rhythmic abilities may benefit language development in these children.
- Additionally, her investigation into pitch discrimination and its relationship with fundamental frequency variation highlights the impact of singing status and vocal health on speech perception, further indicating potential factors that influence language processing abilities in different populations.
