Together with experiments, the main method in the study of child language development is the analysis of behavioral changes of individual children over time. For this purpose recordings of infants’ and children’s naturalistic interactions in a variety of languages spoken in different cultural contexts are key.

American Psychologist, 1977
Today one can scarcely read a daily newspaper or news magazine without encountering a feature extolling the latest linguistic accomplishments of one or another ape. Contemporary introductory psychology textbooks may devote as much space to the achievements of the likes of Sarah and Washoe as they do to the language development of children.

On coordination in child language
Journal of Child Language, 1980ABSTRACTThis paper evaluates Lust's (1977) study of coordination in child language, both on its own merits and in the light of my own research. First, particular design weaknesses in Lust's study are noted which render her results questionable. In addition, it is argued that the hypotheses proposed by Lust fail to make any substantive predictions about

Canadian Psychiatric Association Journal, 1975The dichotomy between non-verbal or play therapy for the younger and verbal psychotherapy for the older child is questionable in view of the fact that lexical representation begins in the second year of life. It is equally doubtful whether, in the absence of certain communications expressed in verbal symbols, any type of interaction between therapist ...

The use of imitation was determined by the percent of syntactic imitation out of total syntactic output. Based on this measure, the children were divided according to whether they used imitations minimally, moderately, or ...

Syntactic distinctions in child language
Journal of Child Language, 1990ABSTRACTThis paper presents a study of young children's understanding of a constraint on English word order, which is that pronouns and proper names cannot be modified by prenominai adjectives. For adults, this is a syntactic constraint: adjectives can only precede nouns, and pronouns and proper names are lexical Noun Phrases (NPs).

The remarkable way in which young children acquire language has long fascinated linguists and developmental psychologists alike. Language is a skill that we have essentially mastered by the age of three, and with incredible ease and speed, despite the complexity of the task.

A Language-Delayed Child at Adolescence
Journal of Speech and Hearing Disorders, 1974There appears to be an almost complete lack of published data on the functioning of language-delayed children beyond the preschool and primary years. As a first step in filling this gap, a 16-year-old boy, first seen at age four because of his severe language difficulties, was reexamined.
