    The purpose of the present study was to investigate turn-taking behavior and the function of utterances produced by mothers when communicating with their children with Down syndrome, by comparing such mothers to the mothers of children without Down syndrome. Forty children (20 with Down syndrome and 20 without) and their mothers participated. The 2 groups of children were matched for Expressive Language Age (ELA) and MLU. Each mother-child dyad was videotaped at home during free play and at meal time. It was found that during free play, the mothers of children with Down syndrome produced more utterances and turns than the mothers of children with no disabilities, but this difference was not observed during mealtime. During free play, the mothers of children with Down syndrome produced more directions and questions, and fewer responses than the other mothers. At mealtime, the mothers of children with Down syndrome produced more questions, information, and evaluations, and fewer responses than the other mothers. When the 2 conditions were combined, the mothers of children with Down syndrome were found to have produced more questions and evaluations, and fewer responses than the other mothers. The results indicate that it would be undesirable to characterize maternal communication style using data collected in only one situation.

    The present study examined the influence of semantic and syntactic priming effects on word recognition in 22 children (average age 10:7) who were hearing impaired, and 21 (average age 11:5) who were not hearing impaired. The process of integrating syntactic and semantic information and linguistic context after accessing the mental lexicon was measured through participants' reaction times on a lexical decision task. The experimental stimuli varied in terms of consistency of the case particles, consistency of the semantic category, and type of verb. A negative priming effect of consistency of the case particles was found in both groups of children. Both groups of participants processed syntactic information, whereas the group who were hearing impaired showed no priming effect for semantic information. In the group who were not hearing impaired, processing of the 3 stimulus factors of syntactic and semantic information was independent. These results suggest that (a) the modularity of syntactic and semantic information processing existed in the group who were not hearing impaired, and (b) semantic processing was different in the group who were hearing impaired, though they could process syntactic information of some case particles as part of a basic processing system.
