An Evaluation of Lena StartTM Using Measures Derived from Parent–Child Interactions
It is important to assess learning in both familiar and unfamiliar conditions to determine the extent of learning generalisation. In this study, we evaluated parent language outcomes of LENA StartTM, a parent-implemented intervention, using distal measures derived from a parent–child free play interaction. Forty-four parents and their child (mean: 20.8 months) participated in LENA StartTM or early childhood education curriculum intervention, in e…
The complexity of opportunities to respond used by mothers and fathers of children with Down syndrome
Caregiver-child interactions are commonly used to examine children’s language learning environment. However, few studies consider interaction configurations beyond dyadic interactions or explore the conceptual complexity of caregiver talk. Thus, we examined if the complexity of a caregiver’s opportunities to respond (OTR) varied when sampled across three interaction configurations. Our study included twelve preschool-aged children with Down syndr…
Parent education to improve early language development
Parents play an important role in creating home language environments that promote language development. A nonequivalent group design was used to evaluate the effectiveness of a community-based implementation of LENA StartTM, a parent-training program aimed at increasing the quantity of adult words (AWC) and conversational turns (CT). Parent-child dyads participated in LENA StartTM (n = 39) or a generic parent education program (n = 17). Overall,…
