Current work:
Using neurophysiological measures to investigating the role of prosody in morphosyntactic processing. Targeted populations are 7-10 year old L2 learners of English and monolingual children with language delay. Aim is to establish neural substrates that can tell us about the underlying mechanisms that facilitate or prevent successful morphosyntactic processing. Findings will help us understand if and how morphosyntactic profiles of L2 learners are similar to those of children with language delay.
