Development and Course of Language Disorder

  • Language disorder emerges during the early developmental period (before age 5)
  • A late onset of language at age 24 months in a population-based sample was the best predictor of outcomes at age 7 years, but there is no single indicator.
  • By age 4 years, individual differences in language ability are more stable, with better measurement accuracy, and are highly predictive of later outcomes.
  • Language disorder diagnosed in children aged 4 years and older is likely to be stable over time and typically persists into adulthood, even though language strengths and deficits are likely to change over the course of development.
