Nonetheless, early phonological and vocabulary abilities exerted equally strong and independent mediation of the SES effects on children…

The authors report data from comparable samples of 265 English-, 336 Putonghua- (Mandarin), and 369 Cantonese-speaking 8- to 16-month-old infants whose caregivers completed MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories and reported them to produce between …
