As a Tier II CRC, Dr. Johnson has examined how universal and language-specific factors shape the emergence of spoken language abilities in infants and children. Her unique focus on acquisition in a linguistically diverse community has allowed her to discover a relationship between children¿s exposure to language variation at home and their performance on speech tasks in the lab. Here, Dr. Johnson proposes to further examine the impact of variable language input on perceptual and cognitive development. By better characterizing the broad range of developmental trajectories present in linguistically diverse populations, we position ourselves to better identify abnormal developmental trajectories.

作为二级CRC， Johnson博士研究了普遍和语言特异性因素如何影响婴儿和儿童口语能力的出现。她对语言多样性社区中习得的独特关注使她能够发现儿童在家中接触语言变化与他们在实验室中的语言任务表现之间的关系。在这里，约翰逊博士建议进一步研究可变语言输入对感知和认知发展的影响。通过更好地描述语言多样化人群中广泛的发展轨迹，我们可以更好地识别异常的发展轨迹。
