Attending to talker characteristics: Word learning and recognition in monolingually- and multilingually-raised infants
Before age one, infants often fail to recognize words produced by new talkers or in new accents. We ask whether infant’s varying experiences, namely exposure to multiple languages or accented speech, might influence this ability. Monolingually and multilingually-raised North-American 8-month-olds were habituated to a novel word-object link, and tested to see whether they would increase their looking time (i.e. dishabituate) when 1) the word-object link was broken (i.e. hearing a new word with the old object or vice versa), and 2) when the word was produced by a new talker (Exp 1) or in a new accent (Exp 2) (i.e. changes that maintain the word-object link). Monolingually- and multilingually-raised infants dishabituated to all changes, suggesting that their varying accent and language experiences do not shape word learning and recognition as tested here. This work provides further evidence that 8-month-olds’ word-object links are non-adult-like from a more diverse group of participants.
期刊介绍:
Cognitive Development contains the very best empirical and theoretical work on the development of perception, memory, language, concepts, thinking, problem solving, metacognition, and social cognition. Criteria for acceptance of articles will be: significance of the work to issues of current interest, substance of the argument, and clarity of expression. For purposes of publication in Cognitive Development, moral and social development will be considered part of cognitive development when they are related to the development of knowledge or thought processes.
