The Lidcombe Program

 

Why does it work?

The reason or reasons why the Lidcombe Program appears to work so well are unknown. Preliminary research suggests, however, that improvement is neither because children reduce the complexity of the language they use, nor because they change the way they speak in any way. Research is continuing at the ASRC into why the treatment works.
