The First Year Inventory (FYI) is a parent report screening measure, aimed at identifying the risk of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in 12-month-old infants. This study aimed to investigate the utility of FYI within the Chinese community and develop a short version, encompassing both a low-risk sample and a high-risk sample comprising infants with…

Ming-Fang Hsieh – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2025
This study examined various formats and strategies used by caregivers in early reading activities, and assessed how they were tailored to the developmental stages of infants and toddlers. Participants included three caregivers from classrooms for ages 0-12, 13-18, and 19-24 months, and the director of an early childhood education center known for…

Compared with the more physically fragile extremely/very preterm children (E/VPT), moderate-to-late preterm (MLPT) children--the large majority of preterm births--are underrepresented in research. This gap persists despite evidence that MLPT children exhibit more difficulties than full-term peers in certain domains. This scoping review surveys the…

Background: Feeding is an important health consideration for children with Down syndrome due to their increased risks for feeding challenges and overweight/obesity. Healthcare providers play an important role in providing feeding guidance to families; however, there is limited research on feeding children with Down syndrome and the role of…

Objective: To examine associations between cognitive stimulation in the home at 6 months and maternal feeding styles at 24 months, direct intervention effects of Smart Beginnings (SB) on feeding styles, and potential indirect effects of SB on feeding styles via earlier intervention effects on cognitive stimulation. Methods: Single-blind, two-site…

Juan C. Cristancho; Nicholas Ainsworth; Jade M. Jenkins – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2025
Background/Context: California is undergoing a multi-year expansion of its Transitional Kindergarten (TK) program, aiming to offer universal pre-kindergarten (UPK) to all four-year-olds by the 2025-2026 school year. Initially introduced in 2010 through the Kindergarten Readiness Act, TK has grown significantly in scope and enrollment. While this…

Naja Ferjan Ramírez; Aeddan Claflin – Developmental Science, 2025
Parental language input is a key predictor of child language achievement. Parentese is a widely used style of child-directed speech (CDS) distinguished by a higher pitch and larger pitch range. A recent parent coaching randomized control trial (Parentese-RCT) demonstrated that English-speaking US parents who were coached to use parentese with…

Rioux, Camille; Wertz, Annie E. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Infants avoid touching plants. Here we examine for the first time whether infants are also reluctant to touch plant foods. We hypothesized that infants would avoid plant foods because food neophobia--the avoidance of novel foods--is particularly strong for fruits and vegetables. However, we predicted that infants would avoid processed plant foods…

The Maryland's Premature Infant Developmental Enrichment (PRIDE) program is a unique collaborative endeavor between the University of Maryland School of Medicine and the Part C program for Baltimore City residents (Baltimore Infants and Toddlers Program; BITP). To evaluate the impact of PRIDE, the current study compared premature infants from…

Aaron DeMasi; Emiel Schoneveld; Sarah E. Berger – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Infant motor development is affected by the sociocultural context in which it takes place. Because societal and cultural practices are dynamic, this exploratory study examined whether the ages at which infants typically learned to crawl, cruise, and walk changed over the past 3 decades. We compiled archival data from 1,306 infants born between…

John M. Franchak; Kellan Kadooka; Caitlin M. Fausey – Developmental Psychology, 2024
How do age and the acquisition of independent walking relate to changes in infants' everyday experiences? We used a novel ecological momentary assessment (EMA) method to gather caregiver reports of infants' restraint, body position, and object holding via text messages sparsely sampled across multiple days of home life at 10, 11, 12, and 13 months…

Jill Lany; Ferhat Karaman; Jessica F. Hay – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Infants' sensitivity to transitional probabilities (TPs) supports language development by facilitating mapping high-TP (HTP) words to meaning, at least up to 18 months of age. Here we tested whether this HTP advantage holds as lexical development progresses, and infants become better at forming word--referent mappings. Two groups of 24-month-olds…

Andres H. Mendez; Chen Yu; Linda B. Smith – Developmental Science, 2024
Traditionally, the exogenous control of gaze by external saliencies and the endogenous control of gaze by knowledge and context have been viewed as competing systems, with late infancy seen as a period of strengthening top-down control over the vagaries of the input. Here we found that one-year-old infants control sustained attention through head…

An individual participant data meta-analysis was conducted to test pre-registered hypotheses about how the configuration of attachment relationships to mothers and fathers predicts children's language competence. Data from seven studies (published between 1985 and 2014) including 719 children (M[subscript age]: 19.84 months; 51% female; 87% White)…

Valentina Gliozzi – Cognitive Science, 2024
We propose a simple computational model that describes potential mechanisms underlying the organization and development of the lexical-semantic system in 18-month-old infants. We focus on two independent aspects: (i) on potential mechanisms underlying the development of taxonomic and associative priming, and (ii) on potential mechanisms underlying…
