PDF-(BOOS)-Language Development: Foundations, Processes, and Clinical Applications

This book provides an accessible overview of language development covering the typical course of language development within the clinical context of language assessment and intervention The Second Edition examines the biological developmental and environmental systems of neurotypical children and the role of these systems as linguistic input in the childs environment contributing to language development This comprehensive resource written and contributed by over 20 experts in the field provides students with an understanding of the foundations of language development in terms of each individual childs communication needs With case studies woven throughout the text students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing signs of problems These cases and clinical practice applications will help students prepare for the clinical challenges they will face in their professional careers Every year new information new theories and new evidence are published about development to explain the complexities that create and facilitate the language acquisition process The authors who have contributed to this text provide the latest research and perspectives on language development among neurotypical children This valuable text bridges biological environmental technological and professional venues to advance the development of professionals and children alike.

Stuttering: Foundations and Clinical Applications, Third Edition presents a comprehensive overview of the science and treatment of stuttering in a single text. The book offers a unique level of coverage of the stuttering population, the disorder\'s features, and the therapies offered for different ages. Written for both undergraduate and graduate level audiences, the authors guide students to critically appraise different viewpoints about the nature of stuttering, understand the disorder\'s complexities, and learn about the major clinical approaches and therapies appropriate for different age groups-- Language Disorders and Language Development presents the most comprehensive and up-to-date coverage of language disorders in children. The text describes both normal and deviant language development, along with assessment and intervention procedures. It is a revision and expansion of portions of Lois Bloom and Margaret Lahey\'s classic text, Language Development and Language Disorders.The text presents a concise summary of current information on language development from infancy through the development of narrative skills in children. Comprehensive chapters are devoted to information on processing skills, including central auditory processing, and subcategories of language- disordered children. The usefulness of the information in these chapters is given in terms of educational management and shows how it is relative to furthering understanding of language disorders. Stuttering: Foundations and Clinical Applications, 2/e has been considered the most comprehensive, complete presentation of the science and treatment of stuttering available in a single text--how stuttering is explained, and how stuttering is treated. The text is unique in its coverage of the stuttering population, its in-depth look at stuttering therapy at various ages, and its original approach that invites students to offer critical appraisals of differing theoretical viewpoints. The new Second Edition has been revamped editorially to ensure ease of readability. It highlights sections with the latest scientific knowledge of stuttering regarding incidence and prevalence, onset natural recovery, and genetics includes completely revised sections on brain anatomy and physiology, motor aspects, and cluttering and updates the material with new case studies, tables and figures, and a new outline format for treatment procedures.

Written for both undergraduate and graduate level audiences, the authors guide students to critically appraise different viewpoints about the nature of stuttering, understand the disorder\'s complexities, and learn about the major clinical approaches and therapies appropriate for different age groups-- Language Development: Foundations, Processes, and Clinical Applications coalesces the necessary knowledge of language development with evidence and clinical practice. Contributed by experts in the field, the Third Edition provides the student with specific clinical applications using skill-based information related to assessment and intervention. Featuring a chapter dedicated solely to the comprehension of language, this edition also covers language development from unique perspectives, such as multicultural/lingual home, international adoption, the child with cochlear implants and other sensory devices, and the child with multiple disabilities. With Case Studies and new Clinical Application exercises woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing atypical development. KEY UPDATES TO THE THIRD EDITION New chapter on the Neurology of Language This textbook provides a deep review of the knowledge base necessary for the competent assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of developmental phonological disorders. Throughout the book, normal and atypical phonological learning in natural and therapeutic contexts are presented as the emergent property of biological constraints and learning mechanisms in dynamic interaction with environmental inputs. The thirteen chapters cover seminal studies and leading-edge research, allowing the speech-language pathologist to design interventions that are adapted to the unique needs of each child while being consistent with the best research evidence. This textbook is intended for undergraduate or graduate speech- language pathology students but also provides a valuable update for practicing clinicians. It is accompanied by a CD-ROM instructor\'s kit that includes teaching slides and laboratory activities for each chapter.

The Second Edition examines the biological, developmental, and environmental systems of neurotypical children, and the role of these systems as linguistic input in the child\'s environment contributing to language development. This comprehensive resource, written and contributed by over 20 experts in the field, provides students with an understanding of the foundations of language development in terms of each individual child\'s communication needs. With case studies woven throughout the text, students are able to follow the progress of children with normal language development as well as those showing signs of problems. These cases and clinical practice applications will help students prepare for the clinical challenges they will face in their professional careers. Every year, new information, new theories, and new evidence are published about development to explain the complexities that create and facilitate the language acquisition process. The authors who have contributed to this text provide the latest research and perspectives on language development among neurotypical children. This valuable text bridges biological, environmental, technological, and professional venues to advance the development of professionals and children alike.
