Introduction

Cherry obtained her PhD degree in cognitive psychology at Tufts University. Before joining the SEC department at EdUHK, Cherry was a postdoctoral research fellow at the Division of Speech and Hearing Sciences at The University of Hong Kong. Her interests cover bilingualism and second language learning, focusing on reading and writing processes across languages or writing systems. Her recent work has used the ERP method to examine the neural correlates of visual word processing and language learning among bilingual/multilingual populations.

Introduction

Dr. WANG, Li-Chih Angus obtained his Ph.D. in special education from the National University of Tainan in Taiwan. Before joining our department this year, he served as an Associate Professor at National Tsing Hua University and EdUHK. He had previously taught in various educational settings within the realm of special education, encompassing preschool, primary, and secondary stages. His research interests include the cognitive and linguistic abilities related to Chinese SpLD, with a main focus on temporal processing. This extends to studies aimed at enhancing these cognitive and linguistic capabilities, as well as refining the pedagogical and assessment methods tailored to this population. Additionally, his research interests encompass the mental health and school life of students with Chinese SpLD, and how these conditions impact their reading performance or learning.

Introduction 

Dr Ahorsu is a result-oriented clinical psychologist with over a decade of experience in conducting research. He is currently serving as an academic editor at PLos One, and an early career editorial board member at the Asian Journal of Psychiatry. He has served in several clinical capacities including heading the employee assistance programme (EAP). As a clinical psychologist, the ultimate outcome of any research is to make life better, longer, and worth living. Guided by this assertion, my research mainly focuses on translating knowledge in psychology and neuroscience into understanding the thinking, feeling, and action of people with different health conditions so as to proffer appropriate treatment for them. Hence, my research interest can be partitioned into three areas. The first is on psychometrics—construction, validation, assessment, and other related activities. The second is on neuroscience (affective and cognitive)—understanding how people process various forms of information. The third is on (neuro)psychological intervention or neurocognitive rehabilitation—examining factors that affect the optimal functioning of humans and designing interventional techniques to remediate it. Broadly, the focus of my research interest is to assess and understand people with mental illness using traditional and cutting-edge research techniques so as to treat or recommend appropriate treatment for them.

Introduction

Dr Xu Zhengye earned her PhD from The Education University of Hong Kong and was awarded the prestigious RGC Postdoctoral Fellowship. Her research focuses on applying principles of embodied cognition to understand and address learning difficulties. Embodied cognition is a framework that emphasizes the intricate relationship between the mind, body, and environment in cognitive processing. Her research findings have been published in leading journals, including the Journal of Educational Psychology. Additionally, she has successfully developed game-based applications that effectively assess and train children with learning difficulties. She also serves as a reviewer for various international peer-reviewed journals, such as Annals of Dyslexia, Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, Language Learning, and Reading and Writing.

Introduction

Karen is a qualified Speech Therapist with frontline and clinic education experience.  Upon her graduation, she had been working at special schools as school based speech therapist, she worked with other professionals to facilitate language development of students with different types and degrees of challenges (e.g. intellectual disabilities, communication disorders, ASD… etc.).  She became a clinical educator and worked at the University of Hong Kong for almost nine years, her major roles included the design and implementation of learning experiences in the clinic curriculum for student clinicians at different stages of learning; teaching and clinic coordination. She worked at an NGO as a team leader of speech therapists before joining HKIED. The work as a team leader offered her opportunities to work beyond frontline and supervisory roles; she was also involved in the quality assurance, development of services and also the qualification for speech therapists.

Dr. Kevin YUEN Chi Pun is an Associate Professor at the Department of Special Education and Counselling, The Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK). He is also the Director of Integrated Centre for Wellbeing (I-WELL), Faculty of Education & Human Development, EdUHK. Dr. Yuen has dual professional qualifications as an audiologist and a speech-language pathologist (or speech therapist). He is also an experienced cochlear implant clinical specialist audiologist. Dr. Yuen received his undergraduate degree in Speech and Hearing Sciences and master’s degree in Audiology from The University of Hong Kong, and Doctor of Philosophy degree from the Faculty of Medicine, The Chinese University of Hong Kong.

Dr. Yuen has a strong research interest in sound perception and speech recognition of children with normal hearing and children with deafness and hard-of-hearing (DHH) in both quiet and noise environments. He investigated the contribution of frequency-specific temporal envelope and periodicity components (without any fine structure components) for lexical tone recognition in normal hearing and DHH listeners. Dr. Yuen developed the Cantonese Lexical Neighbourhood Test (CLNT), the Computerized Cantonese Disyllabic-word Lexical Tone Identification Test in Noise (CANDIWIT-N-A), and the Computerized Mandarin Pediatric Lexical tone & Disyllabic-word Picture identification test (MAPID-A)  in Noise to serve the Cantonese- and Mandarin- speaking populations in Hong Kong and Mainland China.

One of Dr Yuen's new research areas is to identify and remediate young individuals in the Chinese communities with Central Auditory Processing Disorders (CAPD) and to investigate the impact of CAPD on speech and language development, learning. The latest innovative test development from his research team is The Cantonese Pediatric Lexical Tone Dichotic Listening Test (CaPeLeTo DLT) which was developed for the identification of young children with CAPD.
