A recent study conducted by the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom examined the language acquisition of 122 infants aged 2 to 30 months. The study focused on cortical tracking, sensorimotor synchronization, and their relationship to acoustic and visual rhythm. The researchers used a variety of parent-report and infant-led experimental measures to assess the infants' performance in five linguistic domains: semantics, phonology, grammar, rhythmic timing, and gesture. The study also explored the impact of sex and home environment (monolingual vs. multilingual) on language development. The findings provide a foundation for future research on the neural and behavioral markers of language acquisition. [Extracted from the article] |
