We are testing a new system for linking grants to scientists.
The funding information displayed below comes from the
NIH Research Portfolio Online Reporting Tools and the
NSF Award Database.
The grant data on this page is limited to grants awarded in the United States and is thus partial. It can nonetheless be used to understand how funding patterns influence mentorship networks and vice-versa, which has deep implications on how research is done.

Attention in Children With Language Impairments @ City College of New York
The proposed studies are designed to systematically examine auditory and visual attention in children with specific language impairment (SLI) using behavioral and event related potential (ERP) measures and to test the hypothesis that auditory attention is selectively impacted in SLI. This modality specificity of the attention dysfunction in SLI will be assessed relative to two groups of children who are expected to evidence less variation in performance on attention tasks across the two modalities. One control group will be children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), a disorder associated with significant disruption of attention, and the other will be non- impaired children with normal language and attention. Demonstrating a modality difference in attention skills in SLI would 1) suggest that the attention difficulties in SLI children can be qualitatively different from those seen in ADHD and consequently, might require different forms of intervention, especially with regards to medication, 2) raise the speculation that early measures of auditory attention might be useful in predicting which children would evidence difficulties with language acquisition, 3) strongly argue for the use of visual aids in language intervention, and 4) highlight the role of auditory attention in normal language acquisition.
