This study examined whether frontal gamma power (30–50 Hz), from baseline-state electroencephalography (EEG), was related to DLD risk (categorical late talking status) and a continuous measure of expressive language in <em>n</em> = 124 toddlers. Frontal gamma power was significantly associated with late talker status when controlling for demographic factors and concurrent receptive language (<em>β</em> = 1.96, McFadden’s Pseudo <em>R<sup>2</sup></em> = 0.21). Demographic factors and receptive language did not significantly moderate the association between frontal gamma power and late talker status. A continuous measure of expressive language ability was not significantly associated with gamma (<em>r</em> = -0.07).
