Mathilde Chailleux è stata dottoranda in «Psicologia, Linguistica e Neuroscienze Cognitive» sotto la supervisione dei Professori Maria-Teresa Guasti, Fabrizio Arosio e Francesca Foppolo, partecipando anche al progetto Europeo MultiMind (https://www.multilingualmind.eu/).

Ha studiato linguistica e neuroscienze presso l’Università di Tours (Francia) con un particolare interesse verso l’acquisizione e i disturbi del linguaggio. In parallelo, ha partecipato a progetti sul bilinguismo che si focalizzano sull’identificazione del disturbo specifico del linguaggio nei bambini bilingui.

Dal 2018 fa parte del progetto MultiMind che si interessa a diversi aspetti del multilinguismo. Come membro del progetto «Early Stage Researcher»10, ha lavorato sull’identificazione della dislessia nei bambini bilingui. Si è occupata anche della relazione tra abilità di lettura e abilità di anticipazione linguistiche e ritmiche usando l’eye-tracking.

  • BIL Seminar "What does atypicality really mean? Language acquisition in autism" - Mikhail Kissine febbraio 10, 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm U6, Sala Lauree, Terzo piano

    Abstract
    "Research on language in autism mostly explores delayed acquisition or atypical use, the reference point being language in non-autistic individuals. Such approaches focus on language disability, but somewhat downplay the acquisition routes that may be specific to autism. More specifically, typical language development is known to be intimately linked to socio-pragmatic, joint communicative experiences. Early-onset and life-long atypicality in the socio-communicative domain are core characteristics of autism, and likely explain why language onset is often significantly delayed in autistic children. However, it is also usually assumed that language trajectories in autism should be correlated with an increase of socio-communicative skills, such as joint attention. In this talk, I will review evidence that some autistic individuals may, in fact, acquire language in spite of persisting strong socio-communicative disabilities. I will also present new results that show that some autistic children are interested in language in and of itself, independently of its communicative function, and display enhanced sensitivity to the acoustic and structural properties of the linguistic input."
