First seen Apr 08, 2026 · Last updated May 08, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looks at why children with developmental language disorder (DLD) have trouble predicting upcoming words in sentences, which may affect their understanding. Researchers will measure how 80 children aged 5-7 process sentences and events using eye-tracking and button-press tasks. The goal is to identify specific factors that make prediction harder, which could guide future language therapies.
