Measuring the various behaviours that are displayed as infants and mothers share their attention on an object, this text looks at joint engagement, following gazes and points, gestures, imitation of actions, and language comprehension and production. |
| Synopsis: |
The studies in this volume measure the various behaviours that are displayed as infants and mothers share their attention on an outside object: joint engagement, following gazes and points, gestures, imitation of actions, and language comprehension and production. The authors show how infants follow a progression from "sharing" to "following" to "directing" others' attention and behaviour, and how these skills are related to early communicative competence. Their results have important implications for theories of social-cognitive and language development. |
