Rapid Change in Lexical Development in Comprehension and Production.

Reznick, J. Steven; Goldfield, Beverly A.

Developmental Psychology, v28 n3 p406-13 May 1992

Word comprehension tests were given to 24 infants at 2-month intervals. Parents of 18 of the infants kept a diary of the children's verbal production. Comprehension scores revealed a vocabulary spurt for some children. The presence of a comprehension spurt was associated with a word production spurt. (BC)
