Abstract:

The majority of children acquire language effortlessly but approximately 10%
of all children find it difficult especially in the early or preschool years
with consequences for many aspects of their subsequent development and
experience: literacy, social skills, educational qualifications, mental health
and employment. With contributions from an international team of researchers,
this book is the first to draw together a series of new analyses of data
related to children's language development, primarily from large-scale
nationally representative population studies, and to bring a public health
perspective to the field. The book begins with a section on factors
influencing the patterns of language development. A second section explores
continuity and change in language development over time. The third explores
the impact on individuals with developmental language disorders (DLD), the
effectiveness of available interventions, and broader issues about the need
for equity in the delivery of services to those with DLD.
