Can conditioning procedures yield representative infant vocalizations in the laboratory
The quantity and quality of vocalizations produced in the home and laboratory by 36 typically developing infants, aged 3-18 months, were compared. Conditioning procedures were employed in order to obtain typical infant vocalizations in the laboratory. Analyses indicated that vocalizations were comparable in quantity and quality across the two settings. Earlier findings that frequency and complexity of vocalizations increase with age were also con…
Temporal patterning of cry and non-cry sounds in the first eight months of life
Cry and non-cry vocalizations produced by two normal infants in the reflexive, pleasure voicing, and/or expansion periods of vocal develop ment were examined and compared with respect to different aspects of temporal patterning. Overall series duration and number of breath groups per series were significantly greater for cry than later emerging non-cry vocalizations. In spite of this developmental discontinuity, the temporal structure of non-cry …

Infant vocalization: A comprehensive view
Two different accounts of infant vocal development have recently been advanced. Both stress the lawful nature of this development and propose that it occurs in a series of stages. One account stresses the infant's attempt to make speech-like sounds from the earliest months and proposes that characteristics of speech are successively brought under the infant's control. The other suggests that instead, processes of integration and coordination of a…
Features of infant sounds: The emergence of cooing
Vocalizations of two female infants, recorded over a 5-week period after the first emergence of cooing, were studied. The vocalizations were classified as cry, discomfort, vegetative and cooing (comfort) sounds. Fifty vocalizations of each sound type, distributed across the 5-week period of study, were selected from the output of each infant (400 vocalizations in all). The features of voicing, breath direction and consonant-like versus vowel-like…
Features of infant sounds: The first eight weeks of life
Vocalizations of two female infants, recorded between one and eight weeks of age, were studied. The vocalizations were classified as cry, discomfort and vegetative sounds. Five examples of each sound type were selected randomly from the output of both infants and at each of three age levels (90 vocalizations in all). No changes in features were noted as a result of increasing age. The two infants showed individual feature patterns for all sound t…
Teaching /ba/ and /pa/ to Deaf Children Using Real-Time Spectral Displays
A study was made of the ability of deaf children to profit from visually displayed spectral information in learning to produce /ba/and /pa/. In a school for the deaf eight subjects were taught these syllables by means of visual displays of speech, and eight subjects by means of conventional training techniques. Ability to produce these sounds was tested before, immediately after, and six to eight weeks after training. Performance was assessed by …
