The Role of Language in Theory of Mind Development. (2014, background): “Research suggests that these interactions lay the groundwork for learning words, as the child has to es- tablish appropriate reference through shared attention (Baldwin, 1995; Morales et al., 2000; Tomasello, 1995).”
Indeterminacy in language acquisition: the role of child directed speech and joint attention (2004, background): “With respect to the age at which this process can begin to be observed, Morales et al. (2000b) observed that indeed, under the appropriate conditions, infants as young as 6 months can display RJA behavior.”
Individual differences in infant attention skills, joint attention, and emotion regulation behaviour (2005, background): “Utilising this approach, researchers have shown that infant’s ability to follow the line of adult’s visual regard is related to language acquisition (Morales et al., 2000a), as well as behavioural outcome in typically (Morales, 1999) and atypically developing populations of children (Sheinkopf,…”
Joint Attention in Children With Autism (2004, positive): “One explanation for the relationship between joint attention and language is that language (e.g., vocabulary) is learned during episodes of joint attention (Baldwin, 1995; Baron-Cohen, Baldwin, & Crowson, 1997; Morales et al., 2000; Tomasello, 1988, 1995).”
Toward a mechanistic psychology of dialogue (2004, neutral): “, Morton 1969), is the word frequency effect: More frequent words are understood and produced faster than less frequent words. Of course, processing is affected by repetition but this is normally regarded as only modulating the underlying frequency effect. However, in dialogue, local context is so c”
A Typical Participation of Visual Cortex during Word Processing in Autism: An fMRI Study of Semantic Decision. (2007, background): “First, joint attention – an important predictor of language acquisition (Markus et al., 2000;Morales et al., 2000) – is impaired in ASD (Bruinsma et al.”
