Language Development and Age
Herschensohn, Julia (University of Washington)
This book examines whether early childhood is a critical period for language acquisition after which individuals cannot learn language as native speakers. First language is largely susceptible to age constraints, showing major deficits past age twelve. Second-language acquisition also shows age effects, but with a range of individual differences.
