Leonard’s account assumes that this presents a challenge to the limited processing capacity of the child with SLI. As a result, Leonard predicts that children with SLI will have more difficulty with unstressed morphological markers, such as plurals and verb agreement markings, than their language-matched peers (Leonard, 1994; Leonard, Eyer, Bedore, & Grela, 1997; Rice, 1994). Linguistic Deficit Accounts. , in “universal grammar”). , 1995; Rice & Oetting, 1993; Rice & Wexler, 1996) hypothesizes that SLI is attributable to missing or aberrant elements of universal grammar in the child’s linguistic endowment that will interfere with the acquisition of morphological features such as those for number, tense, gender, animacy, or aspect.

They reported that children who had poor language abilities also had the lowest scores on measures of visual-motor integration. The studies reviewed here show that some children with SLI are deficient in motor and/or visual-motor skills. The neuromotor deficits reported in children with language impairments provide support for the hypothesis that SLI is related to a more general neurodevelopmental problem, at least in some children (Tallal, 1988).
