More and More and More about MORE.

Gathercole, Virginia C.

Journal of Experimental Child Psychology, v40 n1 p73-104 Aug 1985

Explores in three experiments development of three linguistic aspects of "more" in children's speech. Experiment 1 examined nature of early semantic content of "more;" Experiment 2, the child's differentiation of mass "more" from count "more"; and Experiment 3, the child's use of "more" as a comparative marker on adjectives.
