Preferred term
infant-caregiver communication
Definition
- Before infants use words, they engage in rich communication with their caregivers through gestures, vocalizations, emotional expressions, and in other ways. This entry describes the development of infant-caregiver communication during the first 2 years of life, including the baby's grasp of interactive practices, and how developing communication is influenced by the child's growing awareness of the adult as a psychological being who communicates and receives communication from the baby.
