Parent-Child Book Reading as an Intervention Technique for Young Children with Language Delays.

Dale, Philip S.; And Others

Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v16 n2 p213-35 Sum 1996

This study evaluated effects of training parents of 33 children (ages 3 to 6) with mild/moderate language delays in either effective joint book-reading techniques (using the Whitehurst Dialogic Reading Training Program) or more general conversational instruction. Results suggest the potential of the book-reading training for facilitating language development in children with language delays. (Author/DB)
