Studies the genetic and environmental origins of verbal and performance components of cognitive delay in toddlers. Relationship between verbal and nonverbal cognitive delays to mental retardation and specific language impairment; Environmental influences on cognitive delays in infancy; Genetic etiology of ...
global in scope, with the children lagging significantly behind the norm population on all applied measures with discrepancies ranging from 0.61 to 2.10SD(p < .001). Also, serious developmental delays in all cognitive domains were vastly overrepresented in the sample ranging from 11.3% (IQ) ...
Inhibition and resistance to interference are terms often used interchangeably in the literature; however, the construct ofcognitive inhibitionis not synonymous with susceptibility to interference (Harnishfeger 1995; Neill et al 1995). Inhibition refers to an active suppression process that keeps irrelevant...
A recent general population survey suggests that parent-reported delays in fine motor and social communication at 6 months may be predictive of a later diagnosis of ASD [2]. Reduced orientation to the eyes and faces in the context of presentation of complex social scenes has also been reported...

This bilingual advantage in shifting has been shown across a range of tasks in toddlers and pre-school children and appears to be specific to shifting rather than general inhibitory control (i.e. there is no clear bilingual advantage on impulse control tasks) (Bialystok, 2015; Poulin-Dubois, ...
MRI of the brain was performed for 15 children in the physical abuse group; two were found to have significant cerebral atrophy.Conclusions: Children who have been physically abused are at high risk for delays in cognitive, motor, and language development. Standard of care for these children ...
ToddlersCognitive trajectoriesBackground: Toddlers with early language delays (LD) are at risk for developmental difficulties, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, little is known about early cognitive skill acquisition in this population.Henry, LauraFarmer, CristanManwaring, Stacy S....
Adaptive functioning is central to autistic individuals’ independence and well-being. However, autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with poor adaptive functioning, even in the absence of cognitive delays or deficits. This study examined how age and executive function associate with adaptive fun...
The aim of this study is to analyze how the amount of screen exposure is related to the child’s stress level and learning, cognitive and language performance especially in populations of children with multiple risk factors like developmental delays, low parental education, multilingual contexts, mig...
