“…The first four levels of the SAEVD-R (see Table 1) closely correspond to those identified by Oller (1980;2000), Koopmans-van Beinum and van der Stelt (1986), and Roug, Landberg, and Lundberg (1989) and those described in the original Stark model (1980). The SAEVD-R differs from earlier models mainly in the vocalization types found in the highest level: Advanced Forms.…”

“…Schauwers and collegues also noted that the four infants implanted before 10 months of age began to babble within Although there are differences in methodology and terminology across the cited studies, these findings show that improvements in hearing sensitivity and speech perception are often reflected in advancements in vocal development for young CI recipients. In addition, the amount of hearing experience required for the emergence of canonical productions, such as babbling, appears to be comparable or less than that observed for typically developing infants (Koopmans-van Beinum & van der Stelt, 1986;Oller, 1980;Roug, et al, 1989;Stark, 1980).…”

Whereas initial studies of post-implantation vocal development have yielded positive findings, there are several reasons to expect that some children might exhibit relatively slow or atypical patterns of vocal development after receiving CIs.…”

“…Advancements to higher levels of vocal development have been interpreted as signs of progress toward meaningful speech and phonological organization (Stoel-Gammon, 1998;Vihman, Ferguson, & Elbert, 1986). Stark's model and those of other early researchers (e.g., Koopmans-van Beinum and van der Stelt, 1986;Oller, 1980;Roug, landberg, & Lundberg, 1989;Zlatin, 1975) provided a foundation for research in prelinguistic speech development. This work continues today in the infraphonological approach of Oller (2000), and efforts to refine Stark's model (Nathani, Ertmer, & Stark, in press), and that of Koopmans-van Beinum and van der Stelt (Gillis, Schauwers, & Govaerts, 2002).…”

The aim of this study was to examine prelinguistic vocal development in very young cochlear implant recipients. A prospective longitudinal research design was used to observe the sequence and time-course of vocal development in seven children who were implanted between 10 and 36 months of age. Speech samples were collected twice before implant activation and on a monthly basis thereafter for up to 2 years. Children's vocalizations were classified according to the levels of the Stark Assessment of Early Vocal Development-Revised (SAEVD-R; Nathani, Ertmer, & Stark, in press). The main findings were (a) six of seven children made advancements in vocal development after implantation, (b) children implanted between 12 and 36 months progressed through SAEVD-R levels in the predicted sequence whereas a child implanted at a younger age showed a different sequence, (c) milestones in vocal development were often achieved with fewer months of hearing experience than observed in typically developing infants and appeared to be influenced by age at implantation, and (d) in general, children implanted at younger ages completed vocal development at younger chronological ages than those implanted later in life. Clinical indicators of benefit from implant use were also identified. Keywords COCHLEAR IMPLANTS; CHILDREN; VOCAL DEVELOPMENT; SPEECH PRODUCTIONCochlear implants (CIs) have been shown to increase hearing sensitivity and improve auditory speech perception, speech production, and language ability in preschool and school-age children (e.g., ASHA, 2004;Blamey, Barry, & Jacq, 2001;Fryhauf-Bertschy, et al., 1997;Svirsky, Robbins, Kirk, Pisoni, & Miyamoto, 2000). Currently, however, little is known about the initial phases of speech development in very young implant recipients. Prelinguistic vocal development (hereafter referred to as "vocal development") is a process by which infants and toddlers produce increasingly diverse and adult-like utterances before they say words on a regular basis. For very young CI recipients, advancements in vocal development are likely to be among the first observable indications of increased hearing sensitivity and improved speech perception ability. That is, barring motoric, cognitive, or persistent technological problems, infants and toddlers with CIs should make progress in vocal development before words dominate their spoken output. Typical and Atypical Patterns of Vocal DevelopmentThe process of vocal development in typically developing infants and toddlers has been characterized as consisting of overlapping stages during which new vocalization types NIH Public Access NIH-PA Author ManuscriptNIH-PA Author Manuscript NIH-PA Author Manuscript emerge and become common (See Vihman, 1996 for review). For example, Stark (1980) proposed a five level model in which infants progressed from Reflexive sounds (e.g., cry and discomfort sounds) to Cooing (i.e., the voluntary productions of comfort sounds in the velar area), to Vocal Play (i.e., sounds showing increased control of phonation and art...

“…Además, múltiples estudios detallan cómo los componentes prosódico, articulatorio, segmental y comunicativo de las vocalizaciones se acercan lenta y progresivamente a esos mismos valores de la(s) lengua(s) modelo (de Boysson-Bardies et al 1981;D'Odorico, 1984;D'Odorico & Franco, 1991;Elbers, 1982;Halliday, 1982;Koopmans-van Beinum & van der Stelt, 1986;Oller, 2000;Oller et al 1976). …”

Este estudio explora la intención comunicativa en la relación entre las vocalizaciones y la prosodia en la fase lingüística de una sola palabra. El corpus de análisis lo han constituido los actos comunicativos de seis niños y niñas vascos de entre 1;1 y 1;8 y con lengua materna euskera. El análisis se ha centrado en la producción acústica sobre un total de 675 vocalizaciones extraídos de aproximadamente 3 h. de grabación en casa de los informantes. Los datos extraídos de las grabaciones muestran que (1) las vocalizaciones comunicativas y no comunicativas no se diferencian de forma significativa a partir de su contorno entonativo final, (2) las funciones comunicativas tempranas se diferencian por su contorno entonativo final, destacando las funciones imperativas y fáticas por su asociación con las tonalidades ascendentes. Palabras clave: Gestos tempranos, prosodia, adquisición del lenguaje, intencionalidad comunicativa, función comunicativa, vasco

The early development of infant non‐distress vocalizations was investigated in this study. Thirteen infants, from 4 to 24 weeks of age, and their mothers were observed weekly in a face‐to‐face interaction situation. The speech quality (syllabic versus vocalic) and melodic complexity (simple versus complex) of infant vocalizations were coded independently. Based on speech quality and melodic complexity, four types of infant non‐distress vocalizations were categorized: simple and complex syllabic (speech‐like) vocalizations as well as simple and complex vocalic (non‐speech‐like) vocalizations. Results showed that complex syllabic sounds were of longer duration and complex vocalic sounds were less frequent than the other types of vocalizations. Curvilinear developmental trends were found in the rate of simple vocalic sounds and in the mean duration of complex syllabic sounds. Furthermore, before 4 months of age, vocalic sounds were more likely to be associated with simple melodic contours, after which syllabic sounds were more likely to be associated with complex melodic contours. A dynamic systems perspective on the early development of infant vocalization is discussed. Copyright © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
