Cumming, Tamara – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2017
Researchers are increasingly recognising the connections between early childhood educators' well-being and their capacity for providing high quality education and care.

Neale, Dave; Pino-Pasternak, Deborah – Educational Psychology Review, 2017
The importance of parent-child reminiscing for young children's social and cognitive development has been well established, but despite the increasing numbers of children attending formal early childhood settings such as nurseries and preschools, there has been surprisingly little research exploring educator-child reminiscing in these contexts.…

Valente, Joseph Michael – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2017
In this article, I demonstrate how hybrid language practices allow for children to make use of their full linguistic repertoire in negotiating the social and communicative demands of the school environment (Axelrod in "Early Child Educ J," p 1-8, 2014). I argue that the unusual case of classe LSF and École Maternelle Gabriel Sajus…

McLean, Christine; McIsaac, Jessie-Lee D.; Mooney, Oriana; Morris, Sarah B.; Turner, Joan – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2023
Defining quality in early learning and child care (ELCC) settings is complex. With an increased emphasis on universal ELCC systems to support greater access for families, research is needed to provide clarity on the concepts that contribute to high-quality programs. In this scoping review, 41 literature sources met our criteria (of a possible…

McLinden, Mike; Lynch, Paul; Soni, Anita; Artiles, Alfredo; Kholowa, Foster; Kamchedzera, Elizabeth; Mbukwa, Jenipher; Mankhwazi, Mika – International Journal of Early Childhood, 2018
Given the narrow scope and conceptualisation of inclusion for young children with disabilities in research within low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) contexts, we draw on a bioecological systems perspective to propose the parameters for a broader unit of analysis. This perspective situates human development within a specific cultural context…

The main purpose of this study is to explore and examine an early bilingual child whose use of English might be different on the account of the context the child uses English.

Cárdenas, Sergio; Evans, David K.; Holland, Peter – Society for Research on Educational Effectiveness, 2015
The evidence that investments in early child development can pay high, long-term dividends, is mounting, both in developed and developing countries. However, recent meta-analysis identified very few studies in developing countries. The authors report on the evaluation impact of a low-cost, community-based parent training program for early child…

Tatsumi, Tomoko; Pine, Julian M. – Journal of Child Language, 2016
The present study investigated children's early use of verb inflection in Japanese by comparing a generativist account, which predicts that the past tense will have a special default-like status for the child during the early stages, with a constructivist input-driven account, which assumes that children's acquisition and use of inflectional forms…

Nishikawa, Tomomi – Applied Linguistics, 2014
Many age-related second language (L2) studies have confirmed that young children have a better chance to become nativelike in L2 acquisition than adults. The current study investigated whether age effects exist in the L2 acquisition of Japanese and whether nativelike proficiency is guaranteed for early child L2 starters after constant target…

Zyga, Olena; Dimitropoulos, Anastasia – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Early parent-child interactions (PCI) impact social cognitive development. Relatedly, children with various developmental disorders exhibit abnormal parental attachment relationships. Parental characteristics and behaviors can impact PCI and socioemotional development as well. No research has examined the parent-child dynamic in Prader-Willi…
