A Comparison of Different Methods for Measuring Individual Change in Kindergarten Children
Measuring progress in students is an important consideration when making decisions in education, clinical practice, and research. However, change due to learning over time at the group level cannot be applied to interpret individual change. Therefore, the current study compared four methods for measuring individual change: reliable change index controlling for practice effects (RCI), standardized individual difference (SID), estimated standardize…
Predictive Strength of Auditory Maturity Across Different Levels of Language Ability
Auditory evoked potential‐age (AEP‐age) is proposed to index auditory maturation and has been found to predict language skills in children with and without a language disorder. However, reporting average effects using linear regression does not fully capitalize on the potential of AEP‐age to estimate individual differences in young children. This study used a quantile regression approach to examine the predictive utility of AEP‐age for 105 typica…
Early cognitive predictors of language, literacy, and mathematics outcomes in the primary grades
Recently, cross-domain research has shown that some early predictors of language, reading, and mathematics overlap and predict one another. This study investigated how early cognitive predictors across domains could predict future academic skills across domains using data from 563 students in kindergarten to second grade (ages 5 to 8; 288 males; largely monolingual English). The roles of verbal, symbolic, and magnitude comparison skills as predic…
The role of working memory loads on immediate and long-term sentence recall
It is well-established that both phonological and semantic knowledge influence verbal working memory. However, the focus has primarily been on understanding phonological effects despite evidence of semantic influences. Articulatory suppression is a well-established task for preventing phonological processing. Methods to prevent semantic processing have rarely been used in the past, highlighting a need for developing a semantic interference task. …
Assessment of artificial and natural sweeteners present in packaged non-alcoholic beverages (NABs) sold on the Singapore market
With continuous efforts by the government in promoting public health nutrition, it is expected that there will be a greater usage of sugar substitutes among NABs in response to the upcoming implementation of Nutri-Grade and ever-fluctuating consumers' demands. The data collected in this study provide a point estimate (July-September 2020) on market composition and use of both sugar and artificial sweeteners in beverages prior to integration of th…
Children’s use of majority information is influenced by pragmatic inferences and task domain
Do children always conform to a majority's testimony, or do the pragmatics of that testimony matter? We investigated the influence of pragmatics on conforming to a majority across 2 domains: when learning about object labels and when learning about causal relationships. Four- and 5-year-olds (N = 250) were given a choice between an object endorsed by a 3-person majority, or one endorsed by a single minority informant. Within each domain, there we…
