The Development of Verbal Control over Motor Behavior: A Replication and Extension of Luria's Findings.
Tinsley, Virginia S.; Waters, Harriet Salatas
Child Development, v53 n3 p746-53 Jun 1982
Two experiments replicate and extend Luria's (1959, 1961) findings on the development of verbal self-regulation during early childhood. Results support Luria's hypothesis that overt verbalizations facilitate control of motor behavior in young children and that language can play an active and integrative role in the development of behavioral and cognitive systems.
