“…The child also showed an expectant ticklishness before the actual touch. The precursor of triadic relationship is an important question to be answered (Rodríguez 2007), and our observation suggests the possibility of ‘Proto–triad relationship’ (transitional stage from dyad to triad) using the offspring’s body as a target at 2 months earlier than the appearance of the true triadic relationship. This proto–triad relationship may act as a precursor of the actual triadic relationship involving an object.…”

The mother–offspring relationship has components of both positivity and negativity. Kowakare is a new concept introduced to explain an adaptive function of the negativity in the early mother-offspring relationship. Kowakare is the psycho-somatic development of the relationship as the process of accumulation in the otherness of offspring. Early human Kowakare has two frameworks, biological inter-body antagonism and socio-cultural allomothering compensating the antagonism. Some features of feeding/weaning, parental aversion to offspring’s bodily products, and transition from dyad to triad relationship (proto–triad relationship) in tactile play are discussed. Early human Kowakare is promoted by allomothering with the nested systems of objects/persons/institutions as interfaces between mother and offspring. Kowakare makes mother–offspring relationship a mutually autonomous and cooperative companionship.

“…The concept of internalization as appropriation was accepted by many authors and researchers; meanwhile, others moved toward a more meaning-based notion on internalization, and some developed directions corresponding to Toomela's intuitions. For instance, studies in developmental psychology began exploring various aspects of the semiotic nature of the development of mind, the various forms of cultural processes involved, or the dynamics modalities of development, yet depending on sociocultural structures (Lyra, 2007;Moro & Rodriguez, 1998;Reddy, 2008;Rodriguez 2007). In what follows, we show how our work further contributes to the notion of internalization by building on Toomela's propositions.…”

“…We also used toys for eliciting the target words in the present study to obtain the same target words as in the comparative natural speech study. It has been argued that toys can provide a focus of common attention and activity between parents and their children, and thus may have a crucial role in developing social skills and communication (e.g., Rodríguez, 2007;Williams et al, 1999). Our findings show that the use of toys for eliciting target words containing acoustically relevant modifications is only advisable in a context in which the speaker can use the toy as an interactive medium to encourage joint attention and communication.…”

Characterising F(0) contour shape in infant- and foreigner-directed speech

Previous research has used both natural and simulated interactions to investigate the functions of infant-directed speech (IDS), but the effect of these approaches on the results of such studies is unclear. The aim of this study was to compare F (0) contours of natural and simulated speech directed to three distinct speech recipient groups to investigate the effects of different methodologies on research findings. F (0) contours were derived from IDS, foreign-directed speech (FDS) and speech directed to a native adult speaker (ADS). The speech was produced by ten students and ten actresses in simulated 'interactions' with an imaginary speech partner and compared to an existing dataset of natural mother-infant interactions. The F (0) contours were analysed with a qualitative and a quantitative method. In the existing natural dataset, IDS F (0) contours (mainly sinusoidal-bell shapes) had been markedly different from FDS and ADS F (0) contours (mainly level shapes). However, these results were not reproducible in the simulated interactions with either students or actresses. Here, the different shapes were more evenly distributed across IDS, FDS and ADS with no difference between these three groups. Consequently, it is suggested that simulated speech should be used with caution in IDS or any other speech research.
