Summary

This study found that French speakers with developmental language impairment (DLI) show strong frequency effects in auditory verb recognition, suggesting a lexical representation deficit. No priming was observed for related verb forms.

Investigation of Lexical and Inflectional Verb Production and Comprehension in French-Speaking Teenagers with Developmental Language Disorders (DLDs).

Behavioral sciences (Basel, Switzerland)·2025

Area of Science:

  • Psycholinguistics
  • Neuroscience
  • Speech and Hearing Sciences

Background:

  • Auditory verb recognition is crucial for language processing.
  • The mental lexicon's organization is key to understanding language impairments.
  • Developmental Language Impairment (DLI) may involve lexical representation deficits.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate frequency and regularity effects in auditory verb recognition.
  • To examine the impact on the mental lexicon of DLI francophones.
  • To test the lexical representation deficit hypothesis in DLI.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a primed auditory lexical decision task.
  • Measured reaction times and response accuracy.
  • Compared DLI and control participants on verb forms varying in frequency and regularity.

Main Results:

  • DLI participants exhibited significant frequency effects.
  • No priming effects were found for inflectionally related verb forms.
  • Differences in processing frequent vs. infrequent verbs were observed.

Conclusions:

  • Findings support the hypothesis that DLI involves a deficit in lexical representation.
  • Auditory processing of verb forms is affected by frequency in DLI.
  • Lexical organization and access are impaired in DLI francophones.
