Purpose: Estimating the sequential associations between educators' and children's talk during language learning interactions requires careful consideration of factors that may impact measurement stability and resultant inferences. This research note will describe a preliminary study that used generalizability theory to understand the contribution of two measurement conditions- and -on estimates of sequential associations between educator talk and autistic preschooler talk in inclusive preschool classrooms.

Method: We used an existing data set of four 15-min video-recorded occasions of educator-child interactions for 11 autistic preschoolers during free-play in their inclusive classroom.

Article Synopsis
  • Next generation sequencing (NGS) was evaluated against a commercial PCR-based assay (Anyplex II HPV28) for detecting HPV in cervical samples from 744 women.
  • NGS identified HPV positivity in 45.5% of samples and discovered 41 additional genotypes, while Anyplex detected 50.2% of samples.
  • The study proposed 17 novel lineages and 14 novel sublineages of HPV, offering significant genomic insights into HPV types where limited complete genomes exist.*
