Recchia, Susan L.; McDevitt, Seung Eun – European Early Childhood Education Research Journal, 2023
In this phenomenological case study, we explore how a toddler with autism (Miguel) becomes a member of an early childhood learning community. Drawing on the right to belong and a social-relational model of disability framework, we asked research questions that are fundamental to the rights and agency of the child and how children experience…

Gurgand, Lilas; Lamarque, Loïa; Havron, Naomi; Bernard, Jonathan Y.; Ramus, Franck; Peyre, Hugo – Developmental Science, 2023
The number of older siblings a child has is negatively correlated with the child's verbal skills, an effect that is well known in the literature. However, few studies have examined the effect of older siblings' sex, of the age gap between siblings, of having foreign-speaking parents, as well as the mediating role of parental interaction. Using…

The Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers-revised/follow-up (M-CHAT-R/F) was developed to reduce the number of cases requiring telephone verification. The aim of this study was to validate a Spanish version of the M-CHAT-R/F in the Spanish public health system. The M-CHAT-R/F was translated, culturally adapted, and then administered to 6625…

Weglarz-Ward, Jenna M.; Santos, Rosa Milagros; Hayslip, Loretta A. – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2020
As it is common for infants and toddlers with disabilities to receive their early intervention (EI) services in child care programs, this mixed method study examined the experiences of child care and EI providers (e.g., occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists) in collaborating to support infants and toddlers with…

Van Reet, Jennifer – Infant and Child Development, 2020
There has long been a hypothesized link between pretend play and self-regulation in childhood, and several recent studies have confirmed a positive relation between the two in children as young as preschool-age. However, no research to date has investigated whether this relation is present in toddlerhood. The purpose of the present study is to…

Jones, Samuel David; Brandt, Silke – Cognitive Science, 2020
High phonological neighborhood density has been associated with both advantages and disadvantages in early word learning. High density may support the formation and fine-tuning of new word sound memories--a process termed lexical configuration (e.g., Storkel, 2004). However, new high-density words are also more likely to be misunderstood as…

W. Jason Peters; Johnny L. Matson – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2020
Because early intervention often leads to the best outcomes in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), it is important that these children are identified as early as possible. Therefore, exploration of tools that could be used to identify at-risk children at an early age is needed. Such a tool could assist health professionals and their…

Boeg Thomsen, Ditte; Theakston, Anna; Kandemirci, Birsu; Brandt, Silke – Developmental Psychology, 2021
To examine whether children's acquisition of perspective-marking language supports development in their ability to reason about mental states, we conducted a longitudinal study testing whether proficiency with complement clauses around age 3 explained variance in false-belief reasoning 6 months later. Forty-five English-speaking 2- and 3-year-olds…

Nandy, Angana; Nixon, Elizabeth; Quigley, Jean – Journal of Child Language, 2021
This study examined the roles of parental gender and context in the communicative functions of parents' child-directed speech. Seventy three families with toddlers participated in the study. Dyadic and triadic parent-toddler interactions were videotaped during structured play activities. Results indicated context-dependent variability in parents'…

Cebioglu, Senay; Broesch, Tanya – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Mirror self-recognition (MSR) is considered to be the benchmark of objective self-awareness--the ability to think about oneself. Cross-cultural research showed that there are systematic differences in toddlers' MSR abilities between 18 and 24 months. Understanding whether these differences result from systematic variation in early social…

Tajik, Mehrnaz; Singer, Elly – Early Years: An International Journal of Research and Development, 2021
This paper discusses collaborative research between academics and practitioners to enhance the level of play engagement in nine groups of toddlers in The Netherlands. Researchers and pedagogic counsellors designed a structured experiment to test the effects of four pedagogical strategies: confronting the children with a rearranged activity corner;…

Hilton, Brooke C.; O'Neill, Amy C.; Kuhlmeier, Valerie A. – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
Engaging in prosocial behavior is costly. By selectively directing prosocial behavior toward individuals with a high probability of reciprocating, we are able to offset these potential costs and maintain a sustainable prosocial system. Often, we determine whether an individual will make a good prosocial partner through the observation of their…

Leth-Steensen, Craig; Gallitto, Elena; Haghbin, Mohsen; Hannan, Patricia A. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2021
PlayWisely is a novel approach to early learning designed to target the positive development of a wide range of cognitive and physical/motor abilities by stimulating the rapidly developing brain of very young children (from 4 months to 3 years of age). The current pilot study represents a first step toward providing an evidence base for the…
