REINFORCEMENT OF VOCALIZATIONS THROUGH CONTINGENT VOCAL IMITATION [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2011
Maternal vocal imitation of infant vocalizations is highly prevalent during face‐to‐face interactions of infants and their caregivers. Although maternal vocal imitation has been associated with later verbal development, its potentially reinforcing effect on infant vocalizations has not been explored experimentally.

Vocal Imitations of Non-Vocal Sounds

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2016
Imitative behaviors are widespread in humans, in particular whenever two persons communicate and interact. Several tokens of spoken languages (onomatopoeias, ideophones, and phonesthemes) also display different degrees of iconicity between the sound of a word and what it refers to. Thus, it probably comes at no surprise that human speakers use a lot of
