Abstract
⺠Prenatal cocaine exposure (PCE) can have adverse effects on language development. ⺠We examine the effects of PCE on speech processing using ERP in adolescents. ⺠PCE participants had abnormal ERPs to speech relative to controls. ⺠We conclude that PCE alters the neural systems responsible for language development.
