new paper out by @erinecampbell.bsky.social &co! #BragelsonLab. TL;DR: diff's between blind vs. sighted kiddos language skills (which are relatively minimal but detectable) are *not* due to big differences in their everyday speech input. Another case of large *within* group variability. #CogSciSky
Blind toddlers often experience language delays. Blind adults do not.

In our new paper at @langdevres.bsky.social, we ask whether differences in language input could help them catch up:

Do parents speak differently to blind children than sighted children?

(Barely... read on for details)

Big #BragelsonLab hooray to Nicole Calderon for successfully defending her sr. thesis! Nicole looked at word form recognition bilingual infants. Such a delight to watch her ownership & mastery over this work grow! The work will keep going beyond this milestone, thnx to nicole's push! #CogSciSky

Really proud of @erinecampbell.bsky.social’s work on this one! Intriguing look at how sensory experience and language access interactively contribute to young kid’s early production of visual, auditory, and abstract words. #CogSciSky #BragelsonLab
New paper out at @openmindjournal.bsky.social!!

We studied early vocab in deaf, hearing, blind, and sighted children in order to learn how sensory access (vision 👀, hearing 👂) and linguistic experiences shape how children learn words...

Read on for a quick summary! 1/N

new paper by @fedebulgarelli.bsky.social! this paper is the result of a careful line of work fed did to link the acoutic var in daily life to those same kids' word production. home data is messy but there's signal we can harness to help us understand word learning mech's! #BragelsonLab #PsychSciSky
