Advancement and Innovation in Measurement of Language Development and Predictors (R21 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is seeking community-engaged research that broadens the conceptualization of qualities of the environment that can support language development in children and focuses on the development of novel measures of children's language development. The overall goal is to build the number of strengths-focused, culturally and linguistically responsive, and generalizable tools to further our understanding of children's language development and/or impairment, and predictors thereof. Key aspects of this opportunity include: * Community-engaged research * Novel measures of children's language development * Strengths-focused, culturally and linguistically responsive tools * Generalizable tools for understanding children's language development and/or impairment * Predictors of children's language development
