Accelerating Language Development through Picture Book Reading: Replication and Extension to a Videotape Training Format.

Arnold, David H.; And Others

Journal of Educational Psychology, v86 n2 p235-43 Jun 1994

A videotape training package to help mothers learn techniques of dialogic reading to preschool children as a way to accelerate language development was developed and tested with 64 children and their mothers. Dialogic reading affected the children's language development powerfully, and the taped training was an effective teaching method. (SLD)
