Morgan, James L.
Language and Cognitive Processes, v11 n1-2 p69-106 Feb-Apr 1996
Research presented in this paper on the character of infant-directed speech and the nature of infant speech perception abilities from 6 to 12 months suggests that prosody contributes significantly to early analyses of child languages and assists infants in developing root processes of parsing.
