The Relation of Play and Sensorimotor Behavior to Language in the Second Year.
Ungerer, Judy A.; Sigman, Marian
Child Development, v55 n4 p1448-55 Aug 1984
The concurrent and predictive relations of sensorimotor behavior and play to language in the second year were assessed among 19 preterm and 20 full-term infants tested at 13 1/2 and 22 months of age. Numerous associations between play and language were identified; sensorimotor behavior and language in the same age period were relatively loosely associated. (Author/RH)
