The final part of the text presents more detailed discussions of language intervention, including augmentative and alternative communication as it relates to children with language disorders and their interventions language assessment and the procedures used and factors considered in intervention with children with language disorders.

With this much-needed textbook, graduate students in SLP courses will have the comprehensive knowledge they need to evaluate, compare, select, and apply effective interventions for language disorders in children. Expert contributors take a balanced, in-depth look at 15 widely used interventions, examining how they should be applied, what evidence demonstrates that they really work, and what SLPs should do to support and refine the approaches. Future practitioners will consider three types of interventions: those targeting prelinguistic and early linguistic communication, more advanced language and literacy, and multiple levels of language and/or nonlanguage goals. Each chapter critically examines one treatment approach and brings it to life with one or more realistic case studies and a DVD clip that shows the strategy in action. Readers will get rich, detailed discussion ofthe theoretical and empirical basis of each interventiontarget populationsassessments for determining treatment relevance and goalspractical requirementsassessment methods to support decision makingconsiderations for children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgroundsapplication to an individual childfuture directionsThe book’s consistent chapter format makes it easy for students to evaluate and compare treatment approaches. And with the brief, memorable DVD clips of each approach in action, students will have vivid illustrations of the interventions that they can’t get from any other textbook. An essential text for future practitioners—and an ideal resource for in-service professional development—this book is the key to choosing and implementing the best interventions for children with language disorders.

Language Disorders in Bilingual Children and Adults, second edition, provides speech-language pathologists, advanced students in communication disorders programs, and clinical language researchers with information needed to formulate and respond to questions related to effective service delivery to bilingual children and adults with suspected or confirmed language disorders. The bilinguals of interest represent varying levels of first and second language proficiency across the lifespan. That is, bilingualism is not determined here by a priori notions of relative proficiency in each language, but rather by the individual\'s experience or need for two languages.. In separate chapters, the book synthesizes the literatures on bilingual children and adults with typical and atypical language skills to give the reader a deep understanding of the multiple factors that affect language development and disorders in those who rely on two languages for meaningful interactions. Assessment and intervention issues and methods are presented separately for each population.. The focus for children is on primary developmental language disorder (specific language impairment, language learning impairment, isolated language impairment, and late talkers). For adults, the focus is on primary acquired language impairment, in particular aphasia. Although child and adult, typical and atypical populations are presented separately, all are considered within a unifying Dynamic Interactive Processing perspective. This broad theoretical framework emphasizes interactions between social, cognitive and communicative systems to form the basis for very practical implications related to assessment and intervention.. For the second edition, the author has updated the entire text with references to the considerable amount of research that has been undertaken in recent years. There has been an impressive uptick in research at the intersection of bilingualism and language An excellent overview of the characteristics of language disorders in children paired with information on assessments and interventions.
