Her research project set some of the groundwork for the development of a phonological assessment tool for Kuwaiti Arabic." (November 2011)
  • Dr. Paola Elizabeth Colozzo: "Dr. Colozzo's work described children's memory strategies - how they change with age, relate to intellectual and language abilities, and vary from task to task. Her findings offer a solution to debates about the nature of verbal rehearsal and indicate greater individual variability than has been recognized in prior studies." (November 2009)
