Moxnes, Anna R.; Aslanian, Teresa K. – Global Studies of Childhood, 2022
Toddlers contribute to early childhood education and care (ECEC) environments in unique ways in contrast to older children and adults. In this article, we explore early childhood teachers' stories about toddlers, thinking, and time. We follow a moment with a toddler's story told with his fingers, and discuss it through teachers' stories. Our focus…

Arculus, Charlotte; MacRae, Christina – Global Studies of Childhood, 2022
Childhood states are commonly invoked by adult humans in derisory ways and as put-downs. While infantile and clownish ways of behaving are often met with insult, we argue that these ways of being could instead be seen in terms of their productive potential. Drawing on posthuman and feminist theories and invoking clownish qualities of Haraway's Bag…

Brian, Jessica; Solish, Abbie; Dowds, Erin; Roth, Ian; Bernardi, Kate; Perry, Kate; Daoud, Sara; Jilderda, Sanne; MacWilliam, Stacey; Smith, Isabel M.; Zwaigenbaum, Lonnie; Bryson, Susan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Evidence supports early intervention for toddlers with ASD, but barriers to access remain, including system costs, workforce constraints, and a range of family socio-demographic factors. An urgent need exists for innovative models that maximize resource efficiency and promote widespread timely access. We examined uptake and outcomes from 82…

Kerr, Margaret L.; Fanning, Kerrie A.; Engbretson, Ashleigh M.; Buttitta, Katherine V.; Borelli, Jessica L.; Smiley, Patricia A.; Rasmussen, Hannah F. – Early Child Development and Care, 2022
Though fatherhood research has recently burgeoned, extant literature primarily focuses on father characteristics and father--child interactions. A critical gap remains in understanding fathers' emotional experiences. Using the Parent Development Interview-Revised, 74 interviews with fathers of toddlers were coded using questions about six positive…

Megan Callahan; Johnny Matson; Celeste Tevis; Michaela Brown – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2022
Previous studies have examined the relationship between sleep problems and challenging behaviors in school-aged children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, literature has not examined this relationship in the context of toddlers or, more specifically, toddlers with aggression. The present study was conducted to examine…

Lauren Berger; Jennie Pyers; Amy Lieberman; Naomi Caselli – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2024
Most deaf children have hearing parents who do not know a sign language at birth and are at risk of limited language input during early childhood. Studying these children as they learn a sign language has revealed that timing of first-language exposure critically shapes language outcomes. But the input deaf children receive in their first language…

Yun Jung Choi; Changsook Kim – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2024
With the explosive growth in time spent on YouTube by babies and toddlers, it's important to analyze what they're watching on YouTube. Indexes that evaluate the contents of YouTube channels for infants and toddlers have been developed, but since those were evaluation-based indexes of educators and parents, it is difficult to find out what content…

Amanda White – Early Childhood Folio, 2024
Stories are a way that children under 3 years of age learn to share meaning with others. Most research with this age group has focused on 1:1 parent-child story relationships at home, largely book reading. These studies have positioned children in the role of story listeners rather than story tellers. Here, I explore new possibilities about the…

This article explores the applicability of mean length of utterance (MLU) as a language assessment measure for Georgian child language, as to-date, Georgian, a morphologically rich language with numerous inflectional categories, experiences an extensive lack of instruments for early language assessment. To this end, a set of guidelines for…

Erin Campbell; Robyn Casillas; Elika Bergelson – Developmental Science, 2024
What is vision's role in driving early word production? To answer this, we assessed parent-report vocabulary questionnaires administered to congenitally blind children (N = 40, Mean age = 24 months [R: 7-57 months]) and compared the size and contents of their productive vocabulary to those of a large normative sample of sighted children (N =…

Yue Ma; Lucy Pappas; Xinwu Zhang; Tianli Feng; Sarah Eve-Dill; Scott Rozelle; Ann Weber – Applied Developmental Science, 2024
Research suggests that elements of the family environment may have significant associations with cognitive and language development outcomes. Less is known, however, about the family environment in peri-urban China, where rates of cognitive and language delay in children aged 0-3 years are as high as 51% and 54%, respectively. Using data collected…

Background: Maternal input plays an important role in influencing linguistic development during the first years of life, and it is evident that mothers adapt their language according to their child's characteristics. Recently, it was demonstrated that maternal input addressed to children with sex chromosome trisomies (SCTs) at 8 months of age is…
