An eye movement corpus study of the age-of-acquisition effect [PDF]
In the present study, we investigated the effects of word-level age of acquisition (AoA) on natural reading. Previous studies, using multiple language modalities, showed that earlier-learned words are recognized, read, spoken, and responded to faster ...

Deaf Children as ‘English Learners’: The Psycholinguistic Turn in Deaf Education
The purpose of this literature review is to present the arguments in support of conceptualizing deaf children as ‘English Learners’, to explore the educational implications of such conceptualizations, and to suggest directions for future ...

Curriculum sequencing and the acquisition of clock reading skills among Chinese and Flemish children [PDF]
The present study reexamines the adoption of clock reading skills in the primary mathematics curriculum. In many Western countries, the mathematics curriculum adopts a number of age-related stages for teaching clock reading skills, that were defined by ...

Age of second language acquisition affects nonverbal conflict processing in children : an fMRI study [PDF]
Background: In their daily communication, bilinguals switch between two languages, a process that involves the selection of a target language and minimization of interference from a nontarget language. Previous studies have uncovered the neural structure
