Changes in the Synchrony of Multimodal Communication in Early Language Development
Conclusions These results suggest that children produce gestures and vocalizations as coordinated elements of a single communication system before the transition to the two-word stage. This coordination is related to subsequent lexical development in this period.Supplemental Materialhttps://doi.org/10.23641/asha.6912242
