(2021) investigated phonological working memory, under the assumption that this capability contributes to the acquisition of new words, and in so doing, mediates language learning (Baddeley et al., 1998). The authors assessed phonological working memory using a digit span task (CELF-4, Semel et...

MBCDI data was used to calculate several graph-theoretic measures of lexico-semantic structure in toddlers’ expressive vocabularies. We use machine-learning techniques to construct predictive models with these datasets to identify toddlers who will have later LL outcomes at preschool and school-age. ...
As a measure of grammatical competence, the sentence repetition task of the Dutch adaptation of the Clinical Evaluation of Language Fundamentals (CELF 4-NL (Kort et al., 2010)) was used. Below-average performance on sentence repetition tasks is an important characteristic of language impairment, ...

which may be potentially part of different types of clause complexes [53]. At the semantic level, clause complexes illustrate how a flow of events develops and becomes a text [54]. According to this theoretical perspective, differences in the structure of oral or written texts reflect differences...
