Abstract

Normal-speaking/hearing 2-, 3-, and 4-yr.-old children ( N = 15) were asked to point to pictorial representations of words in a forced-choice task. The auditory stimuli were randomized tape-recorded presentations of each subject's mother and a male stranger. An analysis of variance indicated that subjects, regardless of age, understood their mothers better.
