Christine Michel; Daniel Matthes; Stefanie Hoehl – Child Development, 2024
This study investigates infants' neural and behavioral responses to maternal ostensive signals during naturalistic mother-infant interactions and their effects on object encoding. Mothers familiarized their 9- to 10-month-olds (N = 35, 17 females, mainly White, data collection: 2018-2019) with objects with or without mutual gaze, infant-directed…

Infant vocalizations are early-emerging communicative markers shown to be atypical in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but few longitudinal, prospective studies exist. In this study, 23,850 infant vocalizations from infants at low (LR)- and high (HR)-risk for ASD (HR-ASD = 23, female = 3; HR-Neg = 35, female = 13; LR = 32, female = 10; 80% White;…

Herzberg, Orit; Fletcher, Katelyn K.; Schatz, Jacob L.; Adolph, Karen E.; Tamis-LeMonda, Catherine S. – Child Development, 2022
Object play yields enormous benefits for infant development. However, little is known about natural play at home where most object interactions occur. We conducted frame-by-frame video analyses of spontaneous activity in two 2-h home visits with 13-month-old crawling infants and 13-, 18-, and 23-month-old walking infants (N = 40; 21 boys; 75%…

Zwaigenbaum, Lonnie; Bryson, Susan E.; Brian, Jessica; Smith, Isabel M.; Sacrey, Lori; Armstrong, Vickie; Roberts, Wendy; Szatmari, Peter; Garon, Nancy; Vaillancourt, Tracy; Roncadin, Caroline – Child Development, 2021
The objectives were to characterize behavioral signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in younger siblings of diagnosed children (high-risk; HR) and examine classification features of the Autism Observation Scale for Infants (AOSI). Participants (501 HR and 180 low-risk [LR]) were assessed between 6 and 18 months using the AOSI and at age 3 for…
