Research Grants
- Infant vocalization and the foundations for speechD Oller; Fiscal Year: 2007..To the extent that precanonical category usage can be quantified, it may lay the foundations for early identification of disorders of communication. ..
- Phonology and Literacy in Early BilingualsD Kimbrough Oller; Fiscal Year: 2009..Basic phonological skills in production and perception will be related to phonological awareness and reading in bilingual children in the context of a short-term longitudinal effort (K-2nd grade). ..
