Full textThe findings of the study are discussed in light of existing theoretical accounts of SLI. Three positions are examined: (a) tense marking constitutes the locus of SLI grammatical difficulties (Extended Optional Infinitive hypothesis, Rice & Wexler, 1996); (b) morphosyntactic problems stem from deficits in agreement relations (Grammatical Agreement Deficit account, Clahsen, 1989; Clahsen, Bartke, & Gollner, 1997); and (c) trouble with inflectional morphology is less pronounced in children with SLI acquiring richly inflected languages (Sparse Morphology account, Leonard, Bortolini, Caselli, McGregor, & Sabbadim, 1992). Special characteristics of Arabic such as its intricate morphological system and null subject properties make it particularly valuable in determining universal versus language-specific aspects of SLI. Clinical implications for SLI in Arabic and directions for future research are also explored.

Full textLa seguente ricerca esplora i profili del Disturbo Specifico del Linguaggio (DSL) attraverso lo studio di un caso singolo e uno studio di gruppo, confrontandoli con quelli di bambini aventi la stessa età cronologica o la stessa lunghezza media dell‘enunciato (LME). Nello studio di caso singolo sono state comparate le caratteristiche morfosintattiche della produzione spontanea ed elicitata di un bambino con DSL con i dati in letteratura sulla produzione di bambini con LME equivalente. I risultati sono stati esaminati alla luce di ipotesi che concepiscono il DSL come un deficit di origine grammaticale. È stato trovato un ritardo nella produzione di verbi flessi, come atteso in base al livello di LME e in accordo con le spiegazioni linguistiche. Un ritardo inatteso per livello di LME è stato trovato nella produzione di pronomi clitici di oggetto diretto e indiretto e articoli, i quali hanno potuto essere spiegati solo parzialmente alla luce delle ipotesi considerate. Nello studio di gruppo, sono state esaminate la comprensione e produzione lessicale morfosintattica e testuale insieme alla memoria fonologica in 50 bambini con DSL (gruppo DSL). Allo scopo di identificare profili, le prestazioni del gruppo DSL sono state comparate con la performance di bambini con sviluppo tipico (gruppo ST) appaiati per età e per LME e sono stati identificati e confrontati sottogruppi di bambini con DSL. Inoltre, i rapporti fra le abilità linguistiche e la memoria fonologica sono stati esaminati nel gruppo totale di bambini (gruppi DSL e ST). Il confronto tra il gruppo DSL e TD ha mostrato, per il primo, un pattern complesso in cui le abilità lessicali, morfosintattiche e di memoria fonologica sono compromesse mentre le capacità testuali sono parzialmente preservate. Sono stati comparati sottogruppi (del gruppo DSL) con le seguenti caratteristiche: produzione lessicale e morfosintattica lievemente compromessa, produzione lessicale e morfosintattica severamente compromessa, e produzione lessicale lievemente compromessa e produzione morfosintattica severamente compromessa. I risultati per i sottogruppi hanno evidenziato diversi profili in relazione alla memoria fonologica, imputabili alla severità del deficit in produzione morfosintattica dei sottogruppi. Ciò suggerisce una forte relazione fra memoria fonologica e morfosintassi. I rapporti specifici fra abilità linguistiche e di memoria sono stati esaminati con analisi di regressione. I risultati hanno indicato che la memoria fonologica è il miglior predittore della comprensione e produzione linguistica nel gruppo totale di bambini, mentre l‘appartenenza al gruppo DSL or al gruppo TD non ha spiegato ulteriore variabilità. Ciò suggerisce una forte relazione fra memoria fonologica e linguaggio, indipendentemente dalla appartenenza a un gruppo o all‘altro. Il secondo migliore predittore è stato la comprensione lessicale, che ha predetto la comprensione morfosintattica e testuale nel gruppo totale, mentre l‘appartenenza al gruppo DSL o TD non ha spiegato ulteriore variabilità. Questi risultati suggeriscono abilità linguistiche gerarchicamente strutturate in comprensione a prescindere del gruppo di appartenenza.

Full textLos niños y niñas con trastorno específico del lenguaje (TEL) presentan dificultades en el proceso de extracción de información abstracta que se encuentra en nuestro entorno a partir de patrones estadísticos, cálculos probabilísticos o habilidades procedimentales. La hipótesis del déficit procedimental (PDH) (Ullman y Pierpont, 2005) propone que las dificultades que presentan estos niños/as en el área de la morfología y la gramática se pueden explicar por anomalías en áreas cerebrales asociadas a la memoria procedimental. La PDH también propone que los niños con TEL tienen menos dificultades relacionadas con el vocabulario porque tienen la memoria declarativa relativamente preservada. Contrariamente, diferentes estudios demuestran que la población con TEL tiene dificultades léxicas. Los objetivos de esta tesis doctoral son demostrar si los niños/as con TEL presentan dificultades en realizar tareas que requieren del aprendizaje estadístico. En segundo lugar, investigamos si el aprendizaje estadístico también tiene un rol explicativo en el conocimiento de vocabulario. En tercer lugar, examinamos el papel que tiene la memoria de trabajo y la memoria declarativa en relación al conocimiento del léxico. Un total de 76 niños/as (24 niñas, 52 niños) participaron en este estudio. El grupo TEL estaba formado por 38 niños y niñas (M edad = 8,7 años). El grupo control estaba formado por 38 niños/as con desarrollo típico (DT) (M edad = 8,9 años). Todos los participantes realizaron 3 experimentos de aprendizaje estadístico: (1) auditivo y secuencial, (1) visual y secuencial y (3) audiovisual y no secuencial. Además, a todos los participantes se les evaluó con diferentes baterías de memoria de trabajo y memoria declarativa. Los resultados mostraron que el grupo TEL obtuvo un rendimiento significativamente inferior al grupo control en los tres experimentos de aprendizaje estadístico. Además, tanto el aprendizaje estadístico como la memoria declarativa fueron dos predictores significativos del conocimiento del vocabulario de los participantes. Estos resultados demuestran que el aprendizaje estadístico también es un mecanismo necesario para adquirir vocabulario y no sólo para aprender morfología y gramática. Además, el grupo TEL mostró resultados más bajos en las tareas de memoria de trabajo auditiva y visual en comparación con el grupo con DT. También se encontraron resultados equivalentes para ambos grupos en las pruebas que evaluaban la memoria declarativa (después de controlar la memoria de trabajo). Los resultados de esta investigación sugieren (1) que los niños/as con TEL muestran dificultades en aprendizaje estadístico en tres modalidades diferentes (visual, auditiva, audio-visual) (2) que los modelos teóricos actuales que se basan en la afectación de la memoria procedimental en esta población deben ir más allá de la hipótesis que sólo hay un aprendizaje procedimental secuencial afectado en esta población y (3) que el aprendizaje estadístico de regularidades no secuenciales también podría estar afectado en esta población.
