Q

Bryant and Clark Bennett (2007)

A

Intentions can be recognised in child directed speech, regardless of whether the meaning is actually understood.

Q

Kuhl (1992)

A

Exaggerated vowel sounds used by parents when speaking to 6-month olds (in English, Swedish and Russian).

Babies turn towards adults who speak in sing-song voice, ignoring regular conversation.
Mothers in all three countries exaggerated the important vowels.

Supported by:
Wells (1986),
Hart and Risley (1995)
Henrichs (2010),

who each made links between the level of interaction and the child’s subsequent linguistic achievement.

Q

Clarke-Stewart (1973)

A

She broadly found that children whose mothers talked more to them had much larger vocabularies.
However, it was sensitive to the child’s comprehension of vocabulary, rather than their reproduction of it.
The use of CDS gradually fades away as the child gets older, but that does not have a negative affect. It is when children are young – pre-school – that CDS seems to have the most profound affect.

Q

Kulick and Schieffelin (2004)

A

In the 1980s, Kulick and Schieffelin examined the speech of communities in Samoa and Papua New Guinea.

In neither of these cultures did the adults use child-directed speech.
The children were spoken to without any special accommodation and are expected to ‘blend in’ with adult interaction as they learn to talk.
These children still went through same the developmental stages at roughly the same time, as long as there was exposure to language.
