Children increasingly associate nouns with their typical vertical space between 18 and 24 months
Previous research showed that the processing of nouns with an implicit spatial position (“up words” such as “moon” or “down words” such as “shoe”) biases vertical responses in children from the age of two. “Up words” seem to direct looks upward (visuo-spatial bias) and facilitate the fixation of targets that appear at an upper position, while the opposite occurred for “down words”. In this preregistered study, we investigated when such language-s…
Modulation of Maximum Pitch in the Speech of Caregivers Addressing Their 18- to 24-Month-Old Children Corresponds to Objects Vertical Position
There are close relationships between vertical positions in space and auditory experiences of fundamental frequency (F0), which even very young children seem to use. Like adults, they associate higher or rising F0 values with upper positions in space and vice versa for lower or falling F0 values. Here, we tested whether caregivers' speech capitalizes on these associations to guide the attention of very young children (18 to 24 months). Together w…
