Functions of Repetition in the Conversations of Preschool Children
Two studies were conducted in which immediate verbal repetitions of preschool children by their peers were recorded and coded into categories of communicative intent. In the first study, 50 preschoolers ranging in age from 3 to 6 years were observed in their classroom during free play. The most frequently scored conversational categories were matching a claim, countering a claim, and agreeing. In the second study, six pairs of 4- and 5-year-old c…

All children spoke mo…

It documents the role of language in the social ization process and argues that development of conversational forms is best understood in the context of a theory of cognitive development. …
