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…

Feldman, Heidi M.; Dale, Philip S.; Campbell, Thomas F.; Colborn, D. Kathleen; Kurs-Lasky, Marcia; Rockette, Howard E.; Paradise, Jack L. – Child Development, 2005
The MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories (CDI; Dale, 1996; Fenson et al., 1994), parent reports about language skills, are being used increasingly in studies of theoretical and public health importance. This study (N=113) correlated scores on the CDI at ages 2 and 3 years with scores at age 3 years on tests of cognition and…
