AbstractVocabulary knowledge of young children, as a well-established predictor of later reading comprehension, is an important domain for assessment and intervention. Standardized, knowledge-based measures are commonly used by speech-language pathologists (SLPs) to describe existing vocabulary knowledge and to provide comparisons to same-age peers. Process-based assessments of word learning can be helpful to provide information about how children may respond to learning opportunities and to inform treatment decisions. This article presents an exploratory study of the relation among vocabulary knowledge, word learning, and learning in vocabulary intervention in preschool children. The study examines the potential of a process-based assessment of word learning to predict response to vocabulary intervention. Participants completed a static, knowledge-based measure of vocabulary knowledge, a process-based assessment of word learning, and between 3 and 11 weeks of vocabulary intervention. Vocabulary knowledge, performance on the process-based assessment of word learning, and learning in vocabulary intervention were strongly related. SLPs might make use of the information provided by a process-based assessment of word learning to determine the appropriate intensity of intervention and to identify areas of phonological and semantic knowledge to target during intervention.

The Impact

The classic interpretation of stable isotope data from young children in an archaeological context is based on the hypothesis that the nitrogen isotope ratios present in breast milk remain identical throughout the breastfeeding period. This exploratory study assesses the changes in the nitrogen and carbon isotope ratios in maternal milk and in the nails of the mother and child, with the aim to evaluate the impact of variations in the stable isotope ratios in maternal milk on the tissues of children, and consequently on the reconstruction of the palaeo-diet of young children. The results show that the isotopic composition of maternal milk diminishes in relation to the mother's tissues like nails and, by extrapolation, bones. The δ15N values of the milk vary little during the weeks of breastfeeding, but this is not the case for carbon, which varies considerably during the course of breastfeeding and weaning and does not seem to be linked to the mother's diet and/or to the height and weight of the child. The difference between the δ15N values recorded for the mother's and child's nails is less than 2‰, which is lower than the values often cited in bioarchaeological literature. In addition, the data from this study does not confirm the hypothesis of a significant increase in heavy isotopes in the nails of newborn babies in relation to those of their mother at childbirth.
