A study investigated the visuospatial short-term and working memory of children with specific language impairment (SLI). Participants were 15 children with SLI, 15 age-matched peers, and 15 language-matched peers. Findings did not reveal any deficits in visuospatial aspects of the short-term or wo...

      ab: A study investigated the visuospatial short-term and working memory of children with specific language impairment (SLI). Participants were 15 children with SLI, 15 age-matched peers, and 15 language-matched peers. Findings did not reveal any deficits in visuospatial aspects of the short-term or working memory of SLI participants. Moreover, findings suggested that immediate memory deficits in SLI mainly involved the verbal domain. Other findings of the study are discussed.
