Developmental Associations Between Working Memory and Language in Children With Specific Language Impairment: A Longitudinal Study

摘要

Purpose: This longitudinal study examined differences in the development of working memory (WM) between children with specific language impairment (SLI) and typically developing (TD) children. Further, it explored to what extent language at ages 7-8 years could be predicted by measures of language and/or WM at ages 4-5 years.
