Communication Within Infant Social Games.
Ross, Hildy S.; Lollis, Susan P.
Developmental Psychology, v23 n2 p241-48 Mar 1987
Explored infants' capability to request a partner's participation in social games. Nineteen infants who were 9, 12, 15, and 18 months old played games for 30 minutes in a laboratory setting with an adult partner. Children's nonverbal behavior and vocalizations after the adult discontinued play were compared with behavior during game-playing periods. (Author/BN)
