Method: A total of 1,029 preschool- and kindergarten-age children were screened in the domains of semantics and morphosyntax in both Spanish and English. Parent report was used to document current exposure to and use of Spanish and English, as well as year of first exposure to English. Risk for language impairment was compared for language group, year of first English exposure, age, and mother's education. Results: While bilingual children's scores on each subtest were significantly lower compared to their functional monolingual peers, they were no more likely to fall in the at-risk range based on a combination of all 4 subtests. Maternal education and year of first English exposure were weakly associated with risk for language impairment but not with language group (via 5 levels of first and second language exposure). Conclusions: Prevalence of risk for language impairment when both languages are tested is not related to language group.Item Sonoluminescence: Making Light Of An Unclear Past And Exploring The Path Forward(2019-05-01) George, Parker Thomas; Wilson, PrestonSonoluminescence is an acoustic phenomenon in which a bubble can be driven acoustically to collapse an emit a rapid burst of light. While this phenomenon was initially discovered in the 1930s, research in the ?eld did not peak until 1989 when stable, single bubble sonoluminescence was observed and reported. The author will present an introduction and overview of this phenomenon, and then will provide a brief history of the key research ?ndings in the ?eld between the initial discovery and the present. In particular, the claim that “sonofusion” could be achieved will be addressed and unpacked. An argument will then be put forth that sonoluminescence was unfairly associated with this “sonofusion,” and that this led to a decline in research in the ?eld, particularly in the applied space. In response, the author will introduce a novel approach to using sonoluminescence as a medical screening tool, along with a suggestion for how such an apparatus could be constructed.
