Infants begin to produce abstract "math" words -- such as numbers (e.g., "two"), spatial terms (e.g., "down"), and magnitude words (e.g., "more") -- during their second postnatal year. Math words, as all words, are likely learned in the home setting during interactions with caregivers. However, everyday…

Kamber, Ege; Mazachowsky, Tessa R.; Mahy, Caitlin E. V. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
The development of children's future-oriented cognition has become a popular research topic in the past two decades. Much of this research focuses on the preschool and middle childhood years, but very little is known about the future-oriented cognitive abilities of toddlers and young preschoolers. The present study investigated the emergence of…

Eylül Turan; Bert De Smedt – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
A growing body of research suggests that children's understanding of mathematical language is critical for their mathematical abilities. Most of this work has been restricted to single language learners (i.e., SLLs), and used dual language learners (i.e., DLLs) as an exclusion criterion, raising questions about the generalizability of these…

With a long-term aim of empowering researchers everywhere to contribute to work on language development, we organized the First Truly Global /L+/ International Summer/Winter School on Language Acquisition, a free 5-day virtual school for early career researchers. In this paper, we describe the school, our experience organizing it, and lessons…

Fawcett, Christine – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
From early in life, infants synchronize with others on a physiological level, a process thought to underlie social connections and group cohesion. This synchronization is seen, for example, when their pupils dilate in response to observing another person with dilated pupils -- known as "pupillary contagion." There is mixed evidence on…

Geffen, Susan; Curtin, Suzanne; Graham, Susan A. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
By 12 months, English-learning infants have an awareness of the sound patterns of word forms that constitute acceptable labels for objects in their native language. In the following experiments, we replicated and extended previous findings that Canadian English-learning infants will not link function-like words with novel objects. Across three…

Lakusta, Laura; Wodzinski, Alaina; Landau, Barbara – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
Support (one object preventing another from falling) is linguistically encoded by adults and children in a highly structured and differentiated way, with basic locative expressions or Light verbs (e.g., in English, the block is "on/put" on the box) encoding Support-from-Below, and lexical verbs (e.g., she "stuck" the block on…

Altinok, Nazli; Király, Ildikó; Gergely, György – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Fourteen-month-olds selectively imitated a sub-efficient means (illuminating a lightbox by a head-touch) when this was modeled by linguistic ingroup members in video-demonstrations. A follow-up study with slightly older infants, however, could replicate this effect only in a video-demonstration context. Hence it still remains unclear whether…

Marion Gardier; Christina Léonard; Marie Geurten – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
Recent research has highlighted the critical role in children's cognitive development of the metacognitive support parents give their children during everyday interactions. Our main goal was to examine whether parents made consistent use of metacognitive talk across different parent - child interaction contexts and to document the effect of this…

Muradoglu, Melis; Cimpian, Joseph R.; Cimpian, Andrei – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
Mixed-effects models are an analytic technique for modeling repeated measurement or nested data. This paper explains the logic of mixed-effects modeling and describes two examples of mixed-effects analyses using R. The intended audience of the paper is psychologists who specialize in cognitive development research. Therefore, the concepts and…

Amanda Mankovich; Sadie MacDonald; Brianna Kinnie; Sara C. Johnson; Sumarga H. Suanda – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2025
Picture book reading is widely regarded as an activity that promotes multiple aspects of children's language acquisition, including their vocabulary development. Historically, researchers interested in what underlies the link between picture book reading and vocabulary development have investigated a suite of caregiver behaviors during picture…

Jasmine M. DeJesus; Maureen A. Callanan; Valerie A. Umscheid; Susan A. Gelman – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
As in other subfields of psychology, developmental science faces a long-standing problem of limited diversity in research participants. This issue especially raises concerns when researchers make unwarranted broad claims about their results, such as using generic language that implies that a finding is unvarying and applies across participants and…

Mazachowsky, Tessa R.; Atance, Cristina M.; Rutt, Joshua L.; Mahy, Caitlin E. V. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
The ability to project oneself forward in time and imagine a future episode, known as episodic foresight (EpF), is an important aspect of future thinking. EpF tasks often involve children choosing an item for a future episode, yet the degree to which future projection is required to succeed -- versus memory or semantic associations -- has been…

Wilson, Kyra; Frank, Michael C.; Fourtassi, Abdellah – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2023
In order for children to understand and reason about the world in an adult-like fashion, they need to learn that conceptual categories are organized in a hierarchical fashion (e.g., a dog is also an animal). While children learn from their first-hand observation of the world, social knowledge transmission via language can also play an important…

Adams, Eryn J.; Cowan, Nelson – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
Working memory is necessary for a wide variety of cognitive abilities. Developmental work has shown that as working memory capacities increase, so does the ability to successfully perform other cognitive tasks, including language processing. The present work demonstrates the effects of working memory availability on children's language production.…
