In a broad sense, this dataset explores morphological and phonological processing in English monolinguals and two bilingual populations, Chinese-English and Spanish-English, using a battery of standardized and self-developed behavioral measures, as well as fNIRS neuroimaging.

This data is from a project examining prosodic processing in children and adults using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) neuroimaging. fNIRS data is optical data collected using a cap with an array of source and detector fibers that emit and detect infrared light, respectively. We used fNIRS neuroimaging to explore prosodic processing, rhyme judgement, and the "oddball" paradigm in children, adults, and a small sample of children with cochlear implants. Matlab scripts, including Ted Huppert's Nirs Toolbox, were used to process the neuroimaging data. The children also took a battery of behavioral assessments (OWLS, Digit Span, PPVT, CTOPP).
