Introducing the Record of Decision‐Making: A New Formative Assessment for Oral Reading
The Reading Teacher, Volume 80, Issue 1, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT In this “Teaching and Learning in Practice” article, we introduce the record of decision‐making (RODM), a formative assessment of decoding while reading that measures the frequency of a student's use of backup strategies while reading aloud. We first explain backup strategies and then share validation and reliability evidence for the backup ...

International Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 61, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Historically, assessment of child speech has focused on transcription and analysis of speech sound production with no exploration of the child's own perception of his or her speech. This article explores the possibility that whilst children with speech ‘difficulties’ may be aware that ‘talking to people’ is problematic, they may not

International Journal of Language &Communication Disorders, Volume 61, Issue 4, July/August 2026.ABSTRACT Background Speech sound disorder (SSD) is broadly defined as difficulty producing speech sounds in childhood. It can have a lasting impact on academic outcomes and well‐being, making effective early intervention vital. Speech and language therapists (SLTs) consider parental involvement—particularly supporting their child with home practice—as ...

Clinical Genetics, Volume 110, Issue 1, Page 125-130, July 2026.We identify a female patient with a homozygous nonsense variant (p.Gln38Ter) in the LYSET gene. This is the first western report of a challenging case of an extensive diagnostic odyssey and demonstrates that the LYSET gene must be considered in the differential diagnosis when M6P‐labeled lysosomal enzymes are altered.

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.ABSTRACT The prosodic characteristics of a native language greatly influence early language acquisition. Yet, Japanese mothers are known to use a specific prosodic structure in infant‐directed vocabulary (IDV)—specifically, three‐mora, two‐syllable words with a heavy‐light pattern—which, crucially, differs from the standard prosodic rhythm of adult ...

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.ABSTRACT Human newborns are able to discriminate between certain languages but not others. This ability has long been attributed to sensitivity to rhythm—the temporal regularities in speech of different languages. Here, we demonstrate through a series of computational simulations that this discrimination behavior can be achieved using no temporal ...

Developmental Science, Volume 29, Issue 4, July 2026.ABSTRACT Current understanding of how facial and vocal cues can communicate emotional intent is based on patterns observed in adults, with surprisingly little known about age‐related differences in nonverbal expression. Do adolescents and adults use different nonverbal cues to express emotions? This cross‐sectional laboratory study revealed age‐related
