This paper, “Functional Organization for Verb Generation in Children with Developmental Language Disorder,” examines how children with Developmental Language Disorder (DLD) process verbs using brain scans. The study compares brain activity during verb generation tasks between children with DLD and children who are typically developing. The results provide insight into how language processing differs in DLD, which could potentially develop better interventions for individuals with DLD.

New Paper: Evaluating Camera Mouse as a Computer Access System for Augmentative and Alternative Communication in Cerebral Palsy: A Case Study
The article “Evaluating Camera Mouse as a Computer Access System for Augmentative and Alternative Communication in Cerebral Palsy: A Case Study” discusses a case study evaluating how effective the Camera Mouse technology is for individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) who need augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). The Camera Mouse allows users to control a computer cursor by moving their head which is tracked by a webcam. The study examines whether the Camera Mouse is easy to use as well as a practical option for those with CP who use AAC. The results indicate that the Camera Mouse could be an option that works for those individuals, and gives us a better understanding of its benefits and use in this group.
