Stepping Back and Listening
Previous research has highlighted that acute care provision can lead to a loss of confidence, control, and independent functioning in older adult patients. In addition, it is recognized that interactions between patients and health care staff are central to the prevention of functional decline in patients. In this study, we aimed to affect the staff-patient relationship by implementing a coaching intervention in an older adult acute care setting.…

Catalan Children's Sensitivity to the Discourse Constraints Imposed by Different Kinds of Question
In an investigation of discourse sensitivity, Catalan-speaking children aged 4 to 8 years were asked two different questions in a picture description task. One was a wide-focus question ("What is happening?"); the other was a narrow-focus question ("What is happening to 'the patient'?"). Children of all age groups displayed sensitivity to the various discourse constraints imposed by the two different questions, responding both with changes to wor…
Discourse Constraints on Syntactic Processing in Language Production
Animacy effects on the production of object-dislocated descriptions by Catalan-speaking children
This paper presents an experiment that examined two related questions. First, it examined the effects of animacy on the production of different syntactic structures and word orders by Catalan-speaking children. Secondly, it explored the relationship between age and the production of different syntactic structures by these children. The results of a picture description experiment run with eighty Catalan-speaking children aged 4;11 to 11;11 show th…
