Direct linkNewman, Rochelle S.; Rowe, Meredith L.; Ratner, Nan Bernstein – Journal of Child Language, 2016
Both the input directed to the child, and the child's ability to process that input, are likely to impact the child's language acquisition. We explore how these factors inter-relate by tracking the relationships among: (a) lexical properties of maternal child-directed speech to prelinguistic (7-month-old) infants (N = 121); (b) these infants'…

Reed, Jessa; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick – Developmental Psychology, 2017
Although research suggests that responsive interactions are imperative for language development, the advent of mobile technology means that parent-child exchanges are often fraught with unpredictable interruptions. Less clear is how these momentary breaks in responsiveness affect word learning. In this within-subjects design, 38 mothers taught…

Goodwin, Anthony; Fein, Deborah; Naigles, Letitia – Journal of Child Language, 2015
Social deficits have been implicated in the language delays and deficits of children with autism (ASD); thus, the extent to which these children use language input in social contexts similarly to typically developing (TD) children is unknown. The current study investigated how caregiver input influenced the development of "wh"-question…

Majorano, Marinella; Vihman, Marilyn M.; DePaolis, Rory A. – Language Learning and Development, 2014
The early relationship between children's emerging articulatory abilities and their capacity to process speech input was investigated, following recent studies with English-learning infants. Twenty-six monolingual Italian-learning infants were tested at 6 months (no consistent and stable use of consonants, or vocal motor schemes [VMS]) and at the…

Shimpi, Priya M.; Fedewa, Alicia; Hans, Sydney – Applied Psycholinguistics, 2012
The relation of social and linguistic input measures to early vocabulary development was examined in 30 low-income African American mother-infant pairs. Observations were conducted when the child was 0 years, 1 month (0;1), 0;4, 0;8, 1;0, 1;6, and 2;0. Maternal input was coded for word types and tokens, contingent responsiveness, and…

Lee, Eliza Carlson; Rescorla, Leslie – Applied Psycholinguistics, 2008
The use of four types of psychological state words (physiological, emotional, desire, and cognitive) during mother-child play sessions at ages 3, 4, and 5 years was examined in 30 children diagnosed with delayed expressive language at 24-31 months and 15 age-matched comparison children with typical development. The children's mean length of…
