Skebo C, Lewis B, Freebairn L, Tag J, Ciesla A, Stein C
Lang Speech Hear Serv Sch . 2013 Jul; 44(4):360-73. PMID: 23833280
Purpose: The relationship between phonological awareness, overall language, vocabulary, and nonlinguistic cognitive skills to decoding and reading comprehension was examined for students at 3 stages of literacy development (i.e., early...

Lewis B, Avrich A, Freebairn L, Taylor H, Iyengar S, Stein C
Top Lang Disord . 2012 Jul; 31(2):112-127. PMID: 22844175
PURPOSE: The present study examined associations of 5 endophenotypes (i.e., measurable skills that are closely associated with speech sound disorders and are useful in detecting genetic influences on speech sound...

Lang Speech Hear Serv Sch . 2011 Oct; 42(4):561-79. PMID: 21969531
Purpose: The main purpose of this study was to examine how children with isolated speech sound disorders (SSDs; n = 20), children with combined SSDs and language impairment (LI; n...

Lewis B, Avrich A, Freebairn L, Hansen A, Sucheston L, Kuo I, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res . 2011 Sep; 54(6):1628-43. PMID: 21930616
Purpose: To demonstrate that early childhood speech sound disorders (SSD) and later school-age reading, written expression, and spelling skills are influenced by shared endophenotypes that may be in part genetic....

Tkach J, Chen X, Freebairn L, Schmithorst V, Holland S, Lewis B
Brain Lang . 2011 Apr; 119(1):42-9. PMID: 21458852
Speech sound disorders (SSD) are the largest group of communication disorders observed in children. One explanation for these disorders is that children with SSD fail to form stable phonological representations...

Stein C, Lu Q, Elston R, Freebairn L, Hansen A, Shriberg L, et al.
Behav Genet . 2010 Jul; 41(2):184-91. PMID: 20623172
Numerous studies have examined genetic influences on developmental problems such as speech sound disorders (SSD), language impairment (LI), and reading disability. Disorders such as SSD are often analyzed using their...

Lewis B, Freebairn L, Hansen A, Miscimarra L, Iyengar S, Taylor H
Am J Speech Lang Pathol . 2007 Apr; 16(2):108-18. PMID: 17456889
Purpose: This study compared parents with histories of speech sound disorders (SSD) to parents without known histories on measures of speech sound production, phonological processing, language, reading, and spelling. Familial...

Lewis B, Shriberg L, Freebairn L, Hansen A, Stein C, Taylor H, et al.
J Speech Lang Hear Res . 2007 Jan; 49(6):1294-312. PMID: 17197497
The purpose of this article is to review recent findings suggesting a genetic susceptibility for speech sound disorders (SSD), the most prevalent communication disorder in early childhood. The importance of...

Stein C, Millard C, Kluge A, Miscimarra L, Cartier K, Freebairn L, et al.
Behav Genet . 2006 Jun; 36(6):858-68. PMID: 16786424
Despite a growing body of evidence indicating that speech sound disorder (SSD) has an underlying genetic etiology, researchers have not yet identified specific genes predisposing to this condition. The speech...

J Commun Disord . 2006 Jan; 39(2):139-57. PMID: 16386753
Unlabelled: The goal of this study was to classify children with speech sound disorders (SSD) empirically, using factor analytic techniques. Participants were 3-7-year olds enrolled in speech/language therapy (N =...
