Introduction to the linguistic study of language pathology, concentrating on experimental approaches and theoretical explanations. Discussion of Specific Language Impairment, autism, Down syndrome, Williams syndrome, normal aging, Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, hemispherectomy and aphasia. Focuses on the comparison of linguistic abilities among these syndromes, while drawing clear comparisons with first and second language acquisition. Topics include the lexicon, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics. Relates the lost linguistic abilities in these syndromes to properties of the brain.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Osteochondritis dissecans, or OCD, is a bone disease that wears away joints and the cartilage that covers them. It occurs most often in children and adolescents. While OCD has been documented and studied for nearly 150 years, researchers still don’t know what causes it. Reporting in The American Journal of Sports Medicine, one group offers up new findings that point to at least one factor that surgeons should look out for. The team looked at radiographs of 61 knees of patients undergoing surgery for OCD. Those patients were just over 23 years old on average, and 77% of them were men. The researchers reviewed the radiographs for mechanical alignment, as previous studies have speculated that deformities due to malalignment contribute to OCD. What they found was that patients with OCD did in fact show signs of off-axis effects. Specifically, they observed that the location of OCD lesions correlated with the deviation of the mechanical axis of the leg..."

The rest of the transcript, along with a link to the research itself, is available on the resource itself.

Acidity of Aromatic Acids
Rating
0.0 stars

The most important property of carboxylic acids, an the one that is responsible for naming them such, is their acidity. An acid is any compound that donates a hydrogen ion (H+, also called a proton) to another compound, termed a base. Carboxylic acids to this much more readily than most other classes of organic compounds, so they are said to be stronger acids, even though they are much weaker than the most important mineral acids -- sulfuric acid (H2SO4), nitric acid (HNO3), and hydrochloric acid (HCl).

Acoustics of Speech and Hearing
Rating
0.0 stars

The Acoustics of Speech and Hearing is an H-Level graduate course that reviews the physical processes involved in the production, propagation and reception of human speech. Particular attention is paid to how the acoustics and mechanics of the speech and auditory system define what sounds we are capable of producing and what sounds we can sense. Areas of discussion include:

the acoustic cues used in determining the direction of a sound source,

the acoustic and mechanical mechanisms involved in speech production and

the acoustic and mechanical mechanism used to transduce and analyze sounds in the ear.
