Abstract |
Studied the effects of the child's participation in longitudinal intervention on the structured mother-child teaching interaction. Comparisons were between 21 Black 40-66 mo old experimental children who were participants in intensive language and cognitive development stimulation from approximately 6 mo of age and their mothers, and 18 control children who were simply periodically tested and their mothers. Significant between-group differences in the children's behavior, task scores, and patterning of interaction were found and, when both mother and child received task instructions, in maternal behavior. Findings provide evidence of feedback effects from the experimental group children to their mothers. (16 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved) |
