Communication and Language Development

Communication and language development is something that starts the day we’re born. While speech and language may come a little further down the line, we begin exploring methods of communication from the moment we’re born. Ongoing speech, language and communication development throughout childhood can have the most enormous impact on the rest of an individual’s life. The vast majority of speech, language and communication issues in general can be traced back to developmental issues during childhood. By addressing issues at the earliest possible stage, child psychologists help children of all ages overcome communication and speech development issues quickly, effectively and completely.

This exclusive child communication development tutorial has been designed for existing and prospective child psychologists and general care-providers alike. Learn about language development throughout childhood, while exploring a series of associated concepts including phonological development, lexical development, morph-syntactic development and the linguistic process.
