I learn what I like: Children’s preferences but not maternal IDS influence word learning from IDS and ADS
The input a child receives as well as the child’s own preferences can influence their learning. While parents typically use exaggerated infant-directe...
Sequential Bayes Factor design in developmental research: studies on early word learning
This project containts the final data for each of the three experiments included in the manuscript "Sequential Bayes Factor designs in developmental r...
Category-based word recognition and word learning in toddlers
We investigated the influence of category size on word recognition and word learning in 2- and 3-year-olds.
Auditory and orthographic influences on adult word recognition across modalities
Although infants acquire language with relative ease compared to adults, adults have the additional benefit of literacy in learning new languages. Mos...
Maternal input and infants’ response to infant-directed speech
Caregivers typically use infant-directed speech (IDS), an exaggerated speech register in communication with infants. Infants prefer IDS over adult-dir...
Individual differences in 7.5-month-olds’ novel word segmentation from maternal and unfamiliar voices
Starting in the mother’s womb, language learning benefits from maternal speech exposure (DeCasper & Spence, 1986). In addition, maternal speech ha...
Familiar words facilitate segmentation of novel similar sounding words in 7-month-olds
Familiarity with a word-form has been identified as one source of information infants use in detecting and segmenting individual words from continuous...
Semantic consistency of actions and word learning
This study investigates the influence of semantic consistency of actions on word learning. Is it easier to learn a word for an object, if the object a...

BabyLex - a short-version of CDIs with high validity
The impact of the quality of maternal speech on infants’ segmentation abilities
Across cultures, infants are typically addressed using a special speech register, called infant-directed speech (IDS). Infants appear to benefit from ...
The Role of Systematicity in Early Referent Selection
This project investigates whether children favour a systematic relation between word form and word meaning, that is, whether words which sound similar...
Age-related Differences in Expectation-based Novel Word Learning
Supplementary materials and figures
Temporal dynamics in multimodal word-action-object learning in infancy
This study aimed to investigate the impact of multisensory settings on children's learning of word-object and action-object associations at 12 and 24 ...
Unimodal word and action learning
Word-object and action-object learning in children aged 30 to 48 months appear to develop at a similar time scale and adhere to similar attentional co...
vICIS 2020 | Tips, tricks, and statistics: Recommendations for improving infant research methods
Symposium presented at vICIS 2020
The Relation Between Attention, Inhibition and Word Learning in Young Children
This project investigates whether children’s word learning success (measured using a cross-situational learning task) is related to their selective at...
