Executive functions as mediators between family socio-economic status and pre-academic abilities in early preschool children
Academic achievement in children is strongly shaped by their family’s socio-economic status (SES). Executive functions (EFs)—a set of high-level cognitive functions that enable individuals to set and achieve goals—may mediate this association. In a representative sample of 2,618 preschoolers (mean age = 42.61 ± 3.41 months; 1,254 girls), we found that EFs partly mediate the SES–pre-academic skills link. SES-related inequalities in numeracy and or…
Perception of accent in bilingual French/American-English children by native adult speakers
Language-specific prosodic acquisition
The development of consonant and lexical-tone discrimination between 3 and 6 years
Aims and objectives: The present study explored children’s discrimination capacities for lexical tones and consonants between 3 and 6 years of age and the effect of native language on this ability. Recent studies in infants have shown a perceptual rebound for non-native listeners during the second year of life, but only for lexical tones. However, the later stages of development, and particularly when children start pre-school, are yet not clear.…

How do 4-day-old infants categorize multisyllabic utterances
Three experiments, using the high-amplitude sucking procedure, tested whether 4-day-old infants discriminate multisyllabic utterances on the basis of number of syllables or number of phonemes. Experiment 1 showed that infants discriminate 2 large sets of phonetically variable utterances composed of 2- vs. 3-CV (consonant-vowel) syllables. Experiment 2 was run to assess whether infants discriminated the 2 sets on the basis of duration differences …
