Speech and language acquisition of Jamaican children

Dr Karla Washington is currently in Jamaica continuing her research to document speech and language acquisition of Jamaican children. She is from the University of Cincinnati and they have published a media release about her work here: http://healthnews.uc.edu/news/?/28669/
The media release also describes our recent publication in the American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology about using the Intelligibility in Context Scale in Jamaica. Congratulations Karla and all the members of your team who are undertaking this important work with children in Jamaica.
One of my blog posts from my visit to Jamaica with Karla is here.
