This study investigated how thematic priming via visual and linguistic cues influences the choice of syntactic voice in healthy French-speaking adults and in French-speaking children with typical and atypical development. In particular, we focused on children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and developmental language disorder (DLD), two clinical groups with documented syntactic difficulties. Twenty adults ( M = 24;7) and 60 children aged 6–11 (20 typically developing, 20 with DLD and 20 with ADHD) were presented with agent or patient cues that progressively increased in strength over three conditions: a no cue condition, a visual cue condition with two cue types (perceptual vs. referential) and a linguistic cue condition with two cue types (topicalization of the agent/patient with and without subsequent sentence initiation). Results showed that all participants produced more passives after having been presented with a patient cue, regardless of cue type (cue &gt; no cue), but linguistic cues facilitated the production of passives significantly more than visual cues (linguistic cue &gt; visual cue). We also found that children with DLD were more sensitive than children with ADHD to visual cues (DLD &gt; ADHD), which were more implicit than the linguistic cues and may have required more attentional resources. The opposite pattern (ADHD &gt; DLD) was true for the linguistic cues, which required syntactic processing. These findings highlight how the development of dynamic tools using cue modality and cue sensitivity might be useful for discriminating children with and without syntactic impairment.

The contribution of visual and linguistic cues to the production of passives in ADHD and DLD: evidence from thematic priming
