Catherine L. Taylor’s primary research is in language development and disorders
in childhood and related developmental outcomes, such as school readiness, school
achievement, and social and emotional well-being. Her research investigates individual
differences in language and literacy development, what factors account for these differences,
and what these differences mean for children’s progress at school and through
life. The overarching aim of this research is to contribute to the evidence base that delivers
equitable developmental opportunities for children, particularly in the early years.
