Download or read book Laura written by Jeni Ellen Yamada and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1990 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The case of Laura (also known as Marta), a young retarded woman with a testable IQ of40, provides the opportunity to address key issues concerning the relationships between language andother mental functions as well and among the components of language use. The case shows thatlanguage can develop and function in spite of marked, pervasive cognitive deficiencies, and itprovides clinical evidence in support of the notion that language is an independent cognitiveability.Possibly the most in-depth and comprehensive study of selectively intact language done todate, this case counters claims that cognitive, social/interactive, and perceptual factors canwholly account for language acquistion and upholds the notion that language is a highly evolved,specialized human ability driven at least in part by a set of principles seen in no other cognitivedomains.Jeni Yamada presents Laura's provocative performance profile of relatively advancedlinguistic abilities alongside significantly impaired nonlinguistic skills. Laura differs from othersubjects studied in that her cognitive impairment is particularly marked. In addition, her syntacticand semantic knowledge are more dissociated than previously studied subjects. As the data on Lauraunfold, they show that language can emerge and develop despite limited nonlinguistic cognitiveabilities, including those hypothesized to be prerequisite for language or to reflect underlyingprinciples necessary for both nonlinguistic and linguistic development. In addition, the caseindicates that various components of language are separable and differentially related tononlanguage abilities.Jeni E. Yamada is coauthor with Susan Curtiss of the Curtiss-YamadaComprehensive Language Evaluation Test and is currently an independent scholar working in the Bostonarea.
