Consistent responses of human mothers to prelinguistic infants: the effect of prelinguistic repertoire size.
The salience of infants' vocal and visual cues was examined to evaluate the efficacy of prelinguistic vocalizations to guide adult behavior. A videotape, constructed of brief behavioral episodes from 3 infants with different-sized vocal repertoires, was played to 40 mothers of prelinguistic infants.

متن کاملMaternal Speech Style with Prelinguistic Twin Infants
The mother–infant communicative speech of a group of mothers of 4-month-old first-born twin infants was compared to the speech of a group of mothers of first-born singleton infants. Maternal groups were matched on age, education level, mother– infant attachment status and infant gender, and maternal depression was assessed as a control variable. Maternal speech was coded for focus, content, com...
