First Sentences in Language and Symbolic Play.

Shore, Cecilia; And Others

Developmental Psychology, v20 n5 p872-80 Sep 1984

Combinatorial abilities in language and elicited symbolic play were compared in a longitudinal study of 30 children at 20 and 28 months. In addition, multivariate analyses were used to assess the stability of individual differences. Generally, different symbolic play variables contributed unique explained variance to different language variables. (Author/RH)
