"4070","On the linguistic implications of context-bound adult-infant interactions","This poster presents a study of the linguistic information potentially available in adult speech directed to 3-month-old infants. The repetitive nature of the speech directed to young infants and the ecological context of the adult-infant natural interaction setting are analyzed in the light of the “Ecological theory of language acquisition” proposed by Lacerda et al. (2004, this volume). The analysis of transcripts of adult-infant interaction sessions suggests that enough information to derive general noun associations may be available as a consequence of the particular context of the adult-infant interactions during the early stages of the language acquisition process.","http://cogprints.org/4070/","Lacerda, Francisco and Marklund, Ellen and Lagerkvist, Lisa and Gustavsson, Lisa and Klintfors, Eeva and Sundberg, Ulla","Berthouze, Luc and Kozima, Hideki and Prince, Christopher G. and Sandini, Giulio and Stojanov, Georgi and Metta, Giorgio and Balkenius, Christian"," Lacerda, Francisco and Marklund, Ellen and Lagerkvist, Lisa and Gustavsson, Lisa and Klintfors, Eeva and Sundberg, Ulla (2004) On the linguistic implications of context-bound adult-infant interactions.
