Union members, like me (@aaup), son of a career-long @ibew member, let the teamsters (@teamsters) know that this cowardice cannot stand! It is chilling that the teamsters’ leadership can’t recognize members’ interest and support @kamalaharris. Support @teamstersharris!

⬇️In this longitudinal study in children between 4 and 6.5 yo, we show the different influence of specific amounts of bilingual language exposure on the development of knowledge and spontaneous use of phonological, lexico-semantic and morphosyntactic abilities.

New paper out in Developmental Science with @bergelsonlab! We asked whether the acoustic properties of language input for individual words also predict age of production. TLDR: Yes – variability in how words sound predicts when kids first say them. https://t.co/KxDcjV21uu (1/n)

Exposure to talker variability shapes how learning unfolds in the lab, and occurs in the everyday speech infants hear in daily life. Here, we asked whether aspects of talker variability in speech...

Why do babies learn words better from their caregivers than from unfamiliar folks? In her Honors thesis, Anna Compton (w/Ellie Breitfeld) explored a novel idea: perhaps babies learn better from people whom they've previously observed as being engaging.
