| I study how children learn language. Much of my work focuses on teasing apart the biological and environmental factors that contribute to the process of how children learn to speak. To do that, I examine children's comparative acquisition of specific linguistic structures and how this relates to the input children hear. My current research integrates insights from linguistic theory, language processing, mathematical modeling, and children with language delay (e.g. phonological delay, specific language impairment) in addressing the nature of children's linguistic representations and how these develop over time. |
