The PPVT-4, measuring receptive oral English language development, was selected for its recognition and popularity in the field, the focus on early oral language, ability to inform instructional decisions for children learning English, and the easy early level high frequency words particularly designed for English language learners.
Here, we measured receptive field sizes across a wider range of target position distances.
Interestingly, in a post hoc analysis, we found that the Mullen subcomponent measuring receptive language development was also correlated with increased cortical activation to the perception of manual actions (and not to the perception of eye gaze shifts).
Relative to the NoTx control group, children receiving training showed increases in standardized measures of receptive language.
Here is more information on each of the five factors: Openness to Experience This aspect of personality measures how receptive you are to new experiences and ideas.
Results of the measures of receptive and expressive vocabulary were analyzed using an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA), determining the differences between intervention and comparison groups on the posttest scores, while controlling for pretest scores and home language.
There were no differences between the group with EO epilepsy and the group with LO epilepsy on measures of receptive vocabulary and memory, which were proposed to be in a stable developmental period across both groups.
Performance on measures of receptive vocabulary (BPVS), list learning (CAVLT) and category fluency were all correlated with the post-surgical integrity of the temporal pole.
Main outcome measures Cognitive, receptive and expressive language, and fine and gross motor scores on the Bayley scales of infant development-III; height, weight, and hemoglobin levels measured at the baseline and end of intervention.
In SLIC, we found borderline association for ATP2C2 with measures of receptive language (oral directions [p = 0.006], word classes [p = 0.04], and comprehension [p = 0.03]), expressive language (formulating sentences [p = 0.04]), and vocabulary (p = 0.04).
