Mother and child narrative elaborations during booksharing in low‐income Mexican‐American dyads

Abstract: Caregivers' narrative elaborations have been consistently shown to relate to language, literacy, and cognitive skills in children. However, research with Latinos yields mixed findings in terms of how much caregivers elaborate and the benefits of elaborations for Latino children's development, especially within booksharing contexts. Moreover, little research has investigated whether and how children elaborate, and whether individual differences among children's narrative elaborations are related to changes in m… Show more

“…In another light, our data can inform and improve global measures of autonomy support and synchrony. Furthermore, our finding that verbal synchrony during narrative coconstruction comprises both mother and child verbal behaviours adds to the mounting evidence (Escobar, Melzi, & Tamis-LeMonda, 2017;Haden et al, 2009;Kelly & Bailey, 2013b;Reese et al, 1993) demonstrating the importance of studying reciprocal influences in narrative and conversational contexts. Bidirectional influences should be considered in interventions that harness dyadic interactions.…”

“…These children’s contributions in Spanish also remained low, which may reflect cultural expectations. Latine children are expected to be active listeners, rather than co-constructors during book-sharing interactions (Escobar et al, 2017; Melzi et al, 2011), meaning mothers may expect limited verbal contributions from their children while sharing books with them. Therefore, children’s language use during book sharing may be driven by their prescribed role in mother–child interactions as opposed to their language skills broadly.…”

“…Unido a este tipo de investigaciones centradas en la producción infantil, también se analiza la influencia del contexto sociocultural en la interacción entre la familia (especialmente desde la figura materna) y el prelector en la construcción de las historias (Melzi y Caspe, 2005;Escobar et al, 2017). Dentro de los estudios que emplean el álbum sin palabras para la elicitación narrativa destacan las investigaciones que toman como referencia la "Teoría de la Mente" y la atribución-predicción de estados emocionales a otras personas (o personajes).…”
