Lyytinen, Paula; Eklund, Kenneth; Lyytinen, Heikki
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v36 n1 p74-86 Jan-Feb 2003
The play and language behavior of mothers with (n=49) and without (n=49) specific reading disabilities was investigated during play with their 14-month-old children. Typically reading mothers produced significantly more symbolic play and language in play interactions with their children than did the mothers with reading disabilities. (Contains references.)
