Cheryl Jialing Ho; Elisabeth Duursma; Jane S. Herbert – Infant and Child Development, 2023
This study examined verbal and non-verbal features of mother-infant shared book reading in Australia during the first year of life and explored the relationship between these features and infant cognition. Mother-infant dyads were observed in this cross-sectional study reading an unfamiliar book in a laboratory setting when infants were aged 6…

Lombardi, Caitlin McPherran; Bronson, Martha; Weber, Lindsey; Pezaris, Elizabeth; Casey, Beth M. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
This study used a person-centered approach to examine mother-daughter dyad behaviors when jointly solving addition problems during a card game. The goal was to identify maternal and child profile behaviors during the interaction as predictors of children's autonomous addition accuracy and strategy use at the end of first grade. Videotaped…

Kimhi, Yael; Bauminger-Zviely, Nirit – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2012
Collaborative problem solving (CPS) requires sharing goals/attention and coordinating actions--all deficient in HFASD. Group differences were examined in CPS (HFASD/typical), with a friend versus with a non-friend. Participants included 28 HFASD and 30 typical children aged 3-6 years and their 58 friends and 58 non-friends. Groups were matched on…

Harris, Toni; Sideris, John; Serpell, Zewelanji; Burchinal, Margaret; Pickett, Chloe – Journal of Negro Education, 2014
This study examined the degree to which dimensions of parenting predicted early academic outcomes in a sample of 111 low-income African American children. Three aspects of parenting were assessed when the children were 36 months old: language stimulation, math-related stimulation, and maternal sensitivity. Academic outcomes were assessed at 54…

Azar, Sandra T.; Stevenson, Michael T.; Johnson, David R. – Journal of Mental Health Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2012
Parents with intellectual disabilities (PID) are overrepresented in the child protective services (CPS) system. This study examined a more nuanced view of the role of cognition in parenting risk. Its goal was to validate a social information processing (SIP) model of child neglect that draws on social cognition research and advances in…

Jacobs, Jon C. – Gifted Child Quarterly, 1971
The study was conducted to determine if the cognitive environment of the child from a high ability family could be classified as expansive or restrictive. It was concluded that mothers of gifted children have both styles available to them. The individual orientation of the high ability mother dictates the s tructure utilized. (CD)

Maternal Regulation of Children's Problem-solving Behavior and Its Impact on Children's Performance.

Freund, Lisa S. – Child Development, 1990
Focused on (1) the effect of mother-child interaction during a problem-solving task on subsequent, independent child performance; and (2) the variability in the division of task responsibilities and maternal regulation of the child as a function of task difficulty, child age, and task component. Participants were 60 three to five year olds and…

Young, Jessica Mercer; Hauser-Cram, Penny – Journal of Early Intervention, 2006
This study examined mother-child interaction as a predictor of mastery motivation (i.e., persistence on a problem-posing task) in 3-year-old children who were born premature and had either motor impairment or developmental delay (n = 34). Two aspects of mother-child interaction were hypothesized to predict for mastery motivation: response to…

Werdenschlag, Lori B.; And Others – 1993
This study examined parental influence on children's cognitive skills by investigating characteristics of parent-child interaction in two tasks that required strategic activity and within which instruction in metacognition could occur. Subjects were 60 third and fourth grade girls and their mothers, who were divided into 2 experimental groups and…

Gopnik, Alison; And Others – Cognitive Development, 1996
Studied semantic and cognitive development of Korean-speaking and English-speaking children. Found that categorization and a naming spurt emerged later in Korean speakers than in English speakers, while means-ends abilities and success/failure words emerged earlier in Korean speakers than in English speakers. Also, Korean-speaking mothers…

Kermani, Hengameh; Janes, Helena A. – Hispanic Journal of Behavioral Sciences, 1999
Observations of 12 immigrant Latino mother-child dyads performing school-like and home-like tasks revealed that in the home-like task, mothers purposefully scaffolded learning, adjusted their scaffolding to variation in task, demonstrated a greater range and variety of scaffolding strategies, and accomplished scaffolding goals based on their…
