Описание: In Ten Lectures on Cognitive Linguistics and the Unification of Spoken and Signed Languages Sherman Wilcox suggests that rather than abstracting away from the material substance of language, linguists can discover the deep connections between signed and spoken languages by taking an embodied view. This embodied solution reveals the patterns and principles that unite languages across modalities. Using a multidisciplinary approach, Wilcox explores such issues as the how to apply cognitive grammar to the study of signed languages, the pervasive conceptual iconicity present throughout the lexicon and grammar of signed languages, the relation of language and gesture, the grammaticization of signs, the significance of motion for understanding language as a dynamic system, and the integration of cognitive neuroscience and cognitive linguistics.

Описание: Signed languages are the naturally evolved visual-gestural languages of deaf communities. There is no international sign language: this book investigates the linguistic properties of many sign languages - British, Mexican, Hong Kong, German - and the extent to which linguistic structure is influenced by whether a language is signed or spoken.

Описание: How many languages are there? What differentiates one language from another? Are new languages still being discovered? Why are so many languages disappearing? These are some of the questions considered in this Very Short Introduction. By examining the science of languages, we find that the answers are not as simple as we might expect.

Описание: The field of auditory processing disorders is filled with many publications which may be confusing to someone trying to learn about this topic. The typical approach to auditory processing taken by authors is either viewing such processes as involving only the auditory system, or not differentiating between auditory processes and other processes such as sensory processing, language understanding, or cognitive/thinking factors. Understanding Auditory Processing Disorders by Dr. Jay R. Lucker presents a comprehensive, integrated approach identifying how auditory processing involves many systems-not merely the auditory system-and describing how different types of auditory processes involve specific systems. Understanding this multisystem approach to auditory processing helps to identify what is going on with children who have problems processing what they hear when hearing loss is not the primary contributing factor. For parents of children who may have auditory processing problems, this book helps them to better understand what going on with their children and how to modify listening tasks for their children. For educators, this book helps them better understand how auditory processing disorders can affect a child educationally, as well as provides recommendations for accommodations that teachers and other professionals can use to make understanding what is spoken in class lessons, conversations, and verbal interactions with adults and children easier. This book clarifies what is needed for the appropriate evaluation of auditory processing to better understand what systems may be malfunctioning and affecting childrens abilities to appropriately process and understand what they hear. For speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists who may provide treatment for children with auditory processing disorder problems, this book identifies some specific treatments that have evidence-based research associated with improving different factors that contribute to auditory processing disorders. For audiologists, this book provides a better understanding of how the testing of auditory processing can be more successful in identifying what appropriate accommodations and treatments are needed based on the specific type of auditory processing disorder the child has.
This volume presents the findings of a large-scale study of individual differences in spoken (and heard) language development during the school years. The goal of the study was to investigate the degree to which language abilities at school entry were stable over time and influential in the child's overall success in important aspects of development.
The methodology was a longitudinal study of over 600 children in the US Midwest during a 10-year period. The language skills of these children -- along with reading, academic, and psychosocial outcomes -- were measured. There was intentional oversampling of children with poor language ability without being associated with other developmental or sensory disorders. Furthermore, these children could be sub-grouped based on their nonverbal abilities, such that one group represents children with specific language impairment (SLI), and the other group with nonspecific language impairment (NLI) represents poor language along with depressed nonverbal abilities.
Throughout the book, the authors consider whether these distinctions are supported by evidence obtained in this study and which aspects of development are impacted by poor language ability. Data are provided that allow conclusions to be made regarding the level of risk associated with different degrees of poor language and whether this risk should be viewed as lying on a continuum.
The volume will appeal to researchers and professionals with an interest in children's language development, particularly those working with children who have a range of language impairments. This includes Speech and Language Pathologists; Child Neuropsychologists; Clinical Psychologists working in Education, as well as Psycholinguists and Developmental Psychologists.
Описание: Key researchers in inclusion and learning disabilities contribute to this engaging book, bringing together evidence, narrative and discussion to question and advance our understanding of the concept of "access" for people with learning disabilities.
