The research involves the use of observational methodologies to analyze children&#8217;s interactions with adults and peers in different contexts, experimental procedures, and standardized assessments. Research findings may have implications for clinical and educational practice, particularly for atypical and at-risk populations. Indeed, they may provide insights for the design and testing of supportive interventions for parents and teachers, in collaboration with local educational and health services.<\/p>\n<h5>2 \u2013 Emergent literacy skills and abilities related to the use of new technologies.<\/h5>\n<p>Studies analyze the relationship between language and literacy skills in typically and atypically developing children in preschool (emergent literacy) and in the early years of primary school. The research examines language abilities and both traditional literacy skills and literacy skills involving the use of and exposure to digital technologies, adopting correlational, quasi-experimental, and intervention research designs. Research findings have relevant theoretical and practical implications for the identification and prevention of language and learning-related fragilities, including in relation to the impact of new technologies.<\/p>\n<h5>3 &#8211; Infant Research.<\/h5>\n<p>Studies investigate children\u2019s early processes of psychological development, focusing on the dynamics of adult-child interaction. The main goal is to shed light on factors underlying individual differences in developmental trajectories. The scope of investigation includes studies that explore the interaction between linguistic-communicative components and cognitive and relational aspects, using observational and experimental methodologies with populations with different developmental profiles.<\/p>\n<h5>4 &#8211; Rhythmic-musical aspects and communicative development.<\/h5>\n<p>Studies analyze the relationship between rhythmic-musical factors and the language and communicative development of children. The research studies adopt experimental procedures and standardized instruments for the assessment of various musical aspects (ability, exposure) and\/or observational methodologies for the analysis of the child&#8217;s interaction with adults and peers and the child&#8217;s linguistic and communicative development, and involve the use of ad-hoc musical interventions. The results may offer important information for clinical practice and educational services and for the creation and testing of interventions to support children&#8217;s language and communication development in synergy with the children\u2019s families.<\/p>\n<h3>International Collaborations<\/h3>\n<p>The Lab maintains a network of international collaborations, including: Erika Hoff (Florida Atlantic University, USA), Roberta Michnick Golinkoff (Unidel H. Rodney Sharp Chair and Professor in the School of Education at the University of Delaware, USA), Reyna L. Gordon (Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Department of Otolaryngology &#8211; Head &amp; Neck Surgery, Vanderbilt Genetics Institute, Vanderbilt Brain Institute, Vanderbilt Kennedy Center, Department of Psychology at Vanderbilt University, USA), Caroline Fitzpatrick (Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke, Canada), and Kate Cain (Lancaster University, UK).<\/p>\n<h3>Training Activities.<\/h3>\n<p>The Lab provides training activities and the possibility to participate in research activities, both on the field and in the laboratory, for Master&#8217;s degree students (for their internship and\/or thesis), trainees in Psychology, and PhD students. The SLD-Lab team is also involved in training activities for educators\/teachers working in nursery schools and kindergartens.<\/p>\n<h3>Members<\/h3>\n<p>Beatrice Andal\u00f2<br \/>\nChiara Barachetti<br \/>\nTamara Bastianello<br \/>\nElena Florit<br \/>\nManuela Lavelli<br \/>\nMarinella Majorano<br \/>\nGiuseppina Messetti<br \/>\nAmbra Natati<br \/>\nValentina Persici<br \/>\nIrene Redondi<br \/>\nMichela Santangelo<\/p>\n<h3>Academic collaborators and partners<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Erika Hoff, Ph.D. (Full Professor of Psychology, Department of Psychology, Florida Atlantic University, USA).
