From Pure Tones to Complex Sounds: Expanding Audiology Tools to Better Address Speech and Language Development.

This editorial highlights the limitations of relying solely on pure-tone audiometry for diagnosing and managing hearing loss, particularly in the fields of speech-language pathology and audiology. While pure-tone audiometry has long been the gold standard for assessing hearing sensitivity, its capacity to fully capture the complexities of hearing impairments is increasingly called into question. The article examines the profound impact of hearing loss on language development, psychosocial well-being, and quality of life, especially in infants and toddlers, who are at risk of significant delays in speech and language development.

Article Synopsis
- Surface dyslexia and dysgraphia are key traits of semantic variant primary progressive aphasia (svPPA), particularly in English, but pose challenges in languages like Italian that have clearer spelling-pronunciation relationships.
- Regularization errors occur when individuals with svPPA fail to recognize exceptions in language rules, such as incorrect inflection of irregular verbs.
- The Italian Verb Inflection Test (IVIT) effectively identifies svPPA by demonstrating higher regularization errors in verb inflection compared to other types of Alzheimer's disease, offering a viable diagnostic tool for Italian speakers.
Syntax and the brain: language evolution as the missing link(ing theory)?

Introduction: This paper provides proof of concept that neurolinguistic research on human language syntax would benefit greatly by expanding its scope to include evolutionary considerations, as well as non-propositional functions of language, including naming/nicknaming and verbal aggression. In particular, an evolutionary approach can help circumvent the so-called granularity problem in studying the processing of syntax in the brain, that is, the apparent mismatch between the abstract postulates of syntax (e.g.

In previous research, infants' performance on speech perception tasks has been shown to predict later language outcomes, typically vocabulary size. We used Bayesian analyses to model trial-level looking time behavior of individual infants on morphological segmentation experiments. We compared the usefulness of Bayesian estimates and the raw looking time difference measures used in previous studies to predict (a) vocabulary size at 30 months and (b) outcome measures obtained from language samples elicited via a picture description task at 36 months.

Purpose: The finite verb morphology composite (FVMC) is a valid measure for charting children's tense development and for differentiating children with and without language impairment during preschool and early elementary years. However, it is unclear whether FVMC scores vary as a function of language sample elicitation contexts. The current study evaluated the performance on FVMC in preschool-aged children across different language sampling contexts.
