Pubblicazioni

In questa sezione segnaliamo alcune ricerche condotte su bambini e bambine esposti/e alla lingua italiana, che hanno un ritardo o un disturbo del linguaggio. Inoltre sono segnalati studi di validazione o normalizzazione di strumenti sviluppati per la valutazione delle competenze comunicative e linguistiche dell’Italiano.

Qualora le pubblicazioni siano Open Access, è possibile accedere e scaricare l’intero articolo, negli altri casi sarà disponibile solo il frontespizio e/o l’abstract.

L’articolo completo potrà essere richiesto agli autori e/o alle autrici. In alcuni casi è disponibile anche una breve scheda in italiano che sottolinea le ricadute cliniche e applicative della ricerca.

Questa pagina è in continuo aggiornamento. Chi desidera segnalare articoli recenti, pubblicati su riviste indicizzate su Scopus e/o su Web of Science, può scrivere a clevorato50@gmail.com. Il comitato di redazione prenderà in carico le segnalazioni.

In considerazione della loro rilevanza mettiamo a disposizione gli articoli di Dorothy Bishop e colleghi (2016-2017), che illustrano la Delphi Consensus sui disturbi del linguaggio in età evolutiva, la review di Law e colleghi (2003) sul trattamento, e la revisione sistematica della letteratura di Fisher (2017).
