Loukatou, Georgia; Scaff, Camila; Demuth, Katherine; Cristia, Alejandrina; Havron, Naomi – Journal of Child Language, 2022
Despite the fact that in most communities interaction occurs between the child and multiple speakers, most previous research on input to children focused on input from mothers.

This paper compared the vocabulary size of a group of 250 bilinguals aged 24-36 months acquiring six different language pairs using an analogous tool, and attempted to identify factors that influence vocabulary sizes and ultimately place children at risk for language delay. Each research group used adaptations of the MacArthur-Bates Communicative…

Using an observational task followed by an experimental task with an Intermodal Preferential Looking Paradigm, we examined the effect of input on children's acquisition of class extension rules by investigating the relationship between the amount of polysemous noun-verb pairs in French-speaking 2-year-olds' input and both their spontaneous…

Joseph, Kate L.; Pine, Julian M. – Journal of Child Language, 2002
Many recent generativist models attribute grammatical knowledge to young children on the basis that children's language patterns the same way as the target adult language. It has been proposed that the child acquires this knowledge early on in development by a process of parameter setting. Wexler (1996) presents the "Very Early Parameter Setting…
