Prof. Dr. Erika Hoff, Florida Atlantic University
Prof. Erika Hoff is the principal investigator of the Language Development Lab of Florida Atlantic University which comprises several projects aimed at identifying the human abilities and human experiences that contribute to language development. Their main focus is a NICHD-funded longitudinal study of English monolingual and Spanish-English bilingual children from the age of 2 ½ to 5 years. They are looking for evidence of factors in children’s early language experiences and early language development that predict successful oral language and preliteracy outcomes at the age children begin formal schooling.
