Compreensão de estruturas sintáticas com movimento A-barra e com movimento A em...
Moita, Mara; Lobo, MariaUIDB/03213/2020 UIDP/03213/2020; In the period in which language should be acquired, auditory input deprivation compromises oral language exposure. The literature reports difficulties in the oral comprehension of syntactic dependencies resulting from A’ movement, but no difficulties in the acquisition of syntactic structures with A-movement in hearing-impaired children with hearing aids. Our study investigates ...

Movimento X0 em crianças com implante coclear
Moita, Mara; Costa, JoãoUID/LIN/03213/2013 PD/BD/105763/2014; Orally trained hearing impaired children with hearing aids and cochlear implants show general syntactic deficit in constructions involving movement (passives, wh-questions and relative clauses) as a result of their late exposure to linguistic input (Friedmann & Szterman, 2006). In this paper, we explore XP movement in wh-questions and X0 movement in verbal answers and in cl...
