    Abstract

    ![CDATA[The development of auditory-visual speech perception was investigated in pre-schoolchildren, school children and adults. Results show a link between auditory-visual speech perception and language-specific speech perception in school children. In addition it was found that speech reading ability in early childhood was predicted by cognitive abilities. Additionally, adults’ and preschool children’s level of visual speech influence was predictable from auditory-only native language perception.Results are discussed in relation to language-specific developmental challenges that might necessitate support information in the form of visual speech information.]]
