About this Episode
Many children with language impairments also have difficulty with executive function (EF); however, the relationships between language and EF are unclear. Dr. Baron summarizes what is known about inner speech--the use of self-directed language—and how it affects EF in children with and without language impairments. She also shares implications for clinical assessment and interventions.
