Munro, Natalie; Baker, Elise; Masso, Sarah; Carson, Lynn; Lee, Taiying; Wong, Anita M. -Y.; Stokes, Stephanie F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: This study examined the effect of Vocabulary Acquisition and Usage for Late Talkers (VAULT) treatment on toddlers' expressive vocabulary and phonology. Parent acceptability of VAULT treatment was also considered. Method: We used a nonconcurrent multiple baseline single case experimental design with three late talking toddlers aged 21-25…

Ng, Christine S.-Y.; Stokes, Stephanie F.; Alt, Mary – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2020
Purpose: We report on a replicated single-case design study that measured the feasibility of an expressive vocabulary intervention for three Cantonese-speaking toddlers with small expressive lexicons relative to their age. The aim was to assess the cross-cultural and cross-linguistic feasibility of an intervention method developed for…

Stokes, Stephanie F.; de Bree, Elise; Kerkhoff, Annemarie; Momenian, Mohammad; Zamuner, Tania – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2019
Purpose: Children come to understand many words by the end of their 1st year of life, and yet, generally by 12 months, only a few words are said. In this study, we investigated which linguistic factors contribute to this comprehension-expression gap the most. Specifically, we asked the following: Are phonological neighborhood density, semantic…

Stokes, Stephanie F.; Bleses, Dorthe; Basboll, Hans; Lambertsen, Claus – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2012
Purpose: This research explored the impact of neighborhood density (ND), word frequency (WF), and word length (WL) on the vocabulary size of Danish-speaking children. Given the particular phonological properties of Danish, the impact was expected to differ from that reported in studies on English and French. Method: The monosyllabic words in the…

Wong, Anita M.-Y.; Au, Cecilia W.-S.; Stokes, Stephanie F. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2004
Little is known about language development in school-age children in Asian countries. This research reports on 3 measures of language development in 100 Cantonese-speaking children age 5 to 9 years. Word scores, structure scores, and the mean length of communication units (MLCU) were derived from a story-retelling task. The structure score was…

Klee, Thomas; Stokes, Stephanie F.; Wong, Anita M.-Y.; Fletcher, Paul; Gavin, William J. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2004
Two studies of children's conversational language abilities are reported. In the first, mean length of utterance (MLU) and lexical diversity (D) were examined in a group of typically developing Cantonese-speaking children in Hong Kong. Regression analyses indicated a significant linear relationship between MLU and age (R = .44) and a significant…
