WordNet: A lexical database for English WordNet® is a free downloadable lexical database of English whose development has been directed by George A Miller, celebrated as one of the instigators of modern cognitive psychology. Words are grouped into 'synsets' that express distinct concepts, and these synsets are interlinked according to conceptual-semantic and lexical relations. The interlinked network can be navigated with WordNet's browser. It is a valuable tool for computational linguistics and natural language processing. Learn about the Global WordNet Association too. It's all very, very interesting. |

| FEBRUARY 2010 Longitudinal Outcomes of Children with Hearing Impairment The National Acoustics Laboratory is a division of Australian Hearing. Its LOCHI "outcomes study" aims to examine, longitudinally, the development of children who have been identified with hearing loss in the Australian states of New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland. In its first phase the study focuses on development up to 5 years of age.

The LOCHI team also provides, as downloads or via email, copies of the PEACH and CDI assessments in a range of languages: Arabic, Chinese, English, Japanese, Turkish and Vietnamese. |
