Language input of mothers interacting with their young children with cleft lip and palate
1Department of Communication Sciences, Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland 44106.
Abstract:
Maternal language addressed to 1-, 2-, and 3-year-old children with cleft lip and palate was studied. Videotaped interactions were obtained from 23 mother-child dyads (13 mother-cleft lip and palate child dyads, and 13 mother noncleft child dyads) during free play. Results indicated more similarities than differences in maternal language characteristics for the two groups of mothers.
