Language disorders in understudied languages

细分领域

Speech and language assessments offer a scalable, affordable framework for diagnosing and tracking neurological disorders. However, research comes predominantly from English speakers, neglecting most of the world’s 7,000 languages. Paradoxically, then, potentially equitable tools seem to broaden existing cross-cultural inequities. Facing this challenge, we invite research on speech and language impairments in persons from underrepresented languages. Manuscripts may target any type of acquired, neurodegenerative, or neurodevelopmental disorder, be it primarily linguistic or not. Cross-sectional, longitudinal, and single-case studies are welcome, as are methodological works, test adaptations, reviews, commentaries, and position papers. Submissions from low- and middle-income countries are especially encouraged.
