Reschke, Peter J.; Fraser, Ashley M.; Picket, Janna; Workman, Katey; Lehnardt, Hans; Stockdale, Laura A.; Padilla-Walker, Laura M.; Cox, Kylin; Holmgren, Hailey G.; Hagen, Sophie; Summers, Kjersti; Clifford, Brandon N.; Essig, Liam W.; Coyne, Sarah M. – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Infants can help and share in the second year of life. However, there is limited knowledge as to variability in these behaviors as a function of target (e.g., caregiver vs. unfamiliar adult) and the influence of caregiver support on infant prosocial behavior. Infants (N = 268, 124 female) at 1-2 years of age (M = 1.47, SD = 0.27) and again at 2-3…

Chu, Shin Ying; Lee, Jaehoon; Wong, Yee Yan; Gan, Chun Hong; Fierro, Veronica; Hersh, Deborah – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Limited efforts have been made in middle- and low-income countries to raise public awareness of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) over the past ten years. We report data from a general population survey exploring the relationship between awareness, knowledge, and attitudes regarding autism in Malaysia. A questionnaire consisting of items related to…

Datu, Jesus Alfonso D. – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2023
Prior studies have shown inconclusive evidence on how knowledge predicts attitude towards individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) in diverse cultural contexts. There is also dearth of research on psychological resources that facilitate inclusive attitude towards students with ASD. This study examines the links of kindness and knowledge…

Grolig, Lorenz; Tiffin-Richards, Simon P.; Schroeder, Sascha – Reading and Writing: An Interdisciplinary Journal, 2020
Leisure reading is a main contributor to print exposure, which is in turn related to individual differences in reading and language skills. The Author Recognition Test (ART) is a brief and objective measure of print exposure that has been used in reading research since the 1990s. Life span studies have reported contradicting results concerning age…

Von Holzen, Katie; Bergmann, Christina – Developmental Psychology, 2021
As they develop into mature speakers of their native language, infants must not only learn words but also the sounds that make up those words. To do so, they must strike a balance between accepting speaker-dependent variation (e.g., mood, voice, accent) but appropriately rejecting variation when it (potentially) changes a word's meaning (e.g., cat…

Talbert, Matthew D. – Contributions to Music Education, 2021
The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of listening condition, age, and years of performing experience on the melodic error detection process and accuracy of adult amateur musicians. Participants (N = 33) engaged in a series of six short melodies, where each participant played three melodies and listened to three melodies. The…

Hsin, Lisa B.; Gonzalez-Gomez, Nayeli; Barriere, Isabelle; Nazzi, Thierry; Legendre, Geraldine – Journal of Child Language, 2021
A surprising comprehension-production asymmetry in subject-verb (SV) agreement acquisition has been suggested in the literature, and recent research indicates that task-specific as well as language-specific features may contribute to this apparent asymmetry across languages. The present study investigates when during development children acquiring…

Borrie, Stephanie A.; Lansford, Kaitlin L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: Early studies of perceptual learning of dysarthric speech, those summarized in Borrie, McAuliffe, and Liss (2012), yielded preliminary evidence that listeners could learn to better understand the speech of a person with dysarthria, revealing a potentially promising avenue for future intelligibility interventions. Since then, a…

Research shows that cultural, socioeconomic, and challenging college admission processes are three themes plaguing Latina students pursing higher education. Latinas are faced with familial obligations, strained income gaps, and limited resources supporting their college application process. The purpose of this study was to determine if enrollment…

Graf Estes, Katharine; Antovich, Dylan M.; Hay, Jessica F. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2018
This research investigates the development of constraints in word learning. Previous experiments have shown that as infants gain more knowledge of native language structure, they become more selective about the forms that they accept as labels. However, the developmental pattern exhibited depends greatly on the way that infants are introduced to…

Behzadnia, Ali; Mehrani, Mehdi B. – Early Child Development and Care, 2018
The present study examined whether young children show any particular bias in response to tag questions. In addition, the study investigated the effects of age and object familiarity on children's accuracy of responses. A total of 137 3-6-year-old children were asked a set of 32 tag questions pertaining to the properties and functions of both…

Bahtic, Klara; Višnjic Jevtic, Adrijana – International Journal of Early Childhood, 2020
This research focuses on young children's understandings about economic, social, and environmental sustainability. Participants were 43 children, aged from 3 to 7 years of age, recruited from two kindergartens in Croatia. Children's ideas were discussed through semi-structured interviews that focused on saving, spending, recycling, justice,…

French, Jason A.; Menendez, David; Herrmann, Patricia A.; Evans, E. Margaret; Rosengren, Karl S. – Grantee Submission, 2018
We investigated children's (n = 120; 3- to 11-year-olds) and adults' (n = 18) reasoning about life-cycle changes in biological organisms by examining their endorsements of four different patterns of life- span changes. Participants were presented with two separate tasks: (a) judging possible adult versions of a juvenile animal and (b) judging…

Hoffman, Holly; Hengesbach, Marie; Trotter, Shana – Journal of Postsecondary Education and Disability, 2020
Many people believe supportive environments inclusive of all populations are of utmost importance. However, a concern centers on the language used to refer to individuals with disabilities, as some support person-first language, and others oppose this practice that became more popular in the late 1980's and early 1990's. Person-first language is…

Cirelli, Laura K.; Trehub, Sandra E. – Developmental Psychology, 2020
Parents commonly vocalize to infants to mitigate their distress, especially when holding them is not possible. Here we examined the relative efficacy of parents' speech and singing (familiar and unfamiliar songs) in alleviating the distress of 8- and 10-month-old infants (n = 68 per age group). Parent-infant dyads participated in 3 trials of the…
