Early language competence is a reliable and powerful predictor of children's success in school, and word gaps linked to socioeconomic status disparities have cascading effects on academic outcomes. While early research -- such as the work of Hart and Risley (1995) -- focused on gaps in vocabulary, growing evidence reveals wide gaps in syntax as…

Rajan, Vinaya; Konishi, Haruka; Ridge, Katherine; Houston, Derek M.; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy; Eastman, Nancy; Schwartz, Richard G. – Journal of Child Language, 2019
Several aspects of early language skills, including parent-report measures of vocabulary, phoneme discrimination, speech segmentation, and speed of lexical access predict later childhood language outcomes. To date, no studies have examined the long-term predictive validity of novel word learning. We examined whether individual differences in novel…

Hirsh-Pasek, Kathryn; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick – ZERO TO THREE, 2018
Language is the single best predictor of later success in school and beyond. Using new findings in the science of learning, this article outlines 6 basic principles that will help parents and caregivers interact with children in ways that grow important language skills. Creating environments that nurture these principles gives every child a chance…

Masek, Lillian R.; Patterson, Sarah J.; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick; Bakeman, Roger; Adamson, Lauren B.; Owen, Margaret Tresch; Pace, Amy; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy – Grantee Submission, 2020
Infants from low-socioeconomic status (SES) households hear a projected 30 million fewer words than their higher-SES peers. In a recent study, Hirsh-Pasek et al. (Psychological Science, 2015; 26: 1071) found that in a low-income sample, fluency and connectedness in exchanges between caregivers and toddlers predicted child language a year later…

Can, Dilara Deniz; Ginsburg-Block, Marika; Golinkoff, Roberta Michnick; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathryn – Journal of Child Language, 2013
This longitudinal study examined the predictive validity of the MacArthur Communicative Developmental Inventories-Short Form (CDI-SF), a parent report questionnaire about children's language development (Fenson, Pethick, Renda, Cox, Dale & Reznick, 2000). Data were first gathered from parents on the CDI-SF vocabulary scores for seventy-six…
