The Role of Fathering in the Language Development Among Young, Low-Income African American and Latino Children Abstract Recent studies of low-income children have revealed significant variations in the quality of parent-child communication as well as the quantity of parent input that are important for successful child language development. Shared aspects of early parent- child communication including joint engagement with symbols and the interaction’s flow predict language outcome above measures of parent verbal input (15) or the child’s joint attention skills. The importance of early joint engagement for language development is demonstrated in diverse race-ethnic groups. However, the majority of this research has focused on mothers. More research on ethnic minority fathers is critical to document the heterogeneity in as well as the unique cultural ecology of the early language environments of low-income, ethnic minority children as well as to foster innovation in the development of preventive interventions to support language development and early academic success. We propose to leverage a longitudinal study of low-income African American and Latino children that includes video recordings of 216 2-3 year old children interacting with their fathers and their mothers. By leveraging an existing archive of videos, we extend the original NICHD investment as well as lower costs enormously relative to the cost of launching a new longitudinal study. Our aims are as follows: Aim 1: To describe father-child interactions in low-income African American and Latino families encompassing both broad characteristics as well as culturally distinct patterns of father language input and quality of joint engagement. Aim 2: To compare language input and the quality of joint engagement among African American and Latino low-income children in early father-child and mother-child interactions. Aim 3: To examine the relation between early language input, joint engagement, and culturally distinct patterns of father-child interaction with language development and literacy achievement in early elementary school among African American and Latino low-income children. Aim 4: To explore whether father-child interactions, father-child language, and/or the relation of these with child language development and early literacy achievement differ by child gender.

父亲在语言发展中的作用 在年轻、低收入的非洲裔美国人和拉美裔儿童中 摘要 最近对低收入儿童的研究表明，在 亲子沟通的质量以及家长输入的数量 对成功的儿童语言发展很重要。早期父母的共同之处- 儿童沟通包括符号的共同参与和互动的流程 在父母言语输入(15)或孩子的关节上预测语言结果 集中注意力的技巧。早期联合参与对语言发展的重要性是 在不同的种族-民族群体中表现出来。 然而，这项研究的大部分都集中在母亲身上。更多关于 少数民族父亲是记录异质性和独特性的关键 低收入少数民族早期语言环境的文化生态 以及促进制定预防性干预措施的创新，以 支持语言发展和早期学业成功。我们建议利用 对低收入非洲裔美国人和拉美裔儿童的纵向研究包括 216名2-3岁儿童与他们的父亲和他们的父母互动的视频记录 母亲们。通过利用现有的视频归档，我们扩展了原始的NICHD 投资以及与启动新产品的成本相比大大降低的成本 纵向研究。我们的目标是： 目标1：描述低收入非裔美国人和 拉丁裔家庭既有广泛的特征，又有独特的文化 父亲语言输入方式与共同参与质量的关系。 目标2：比较语言输入和联合参与的质量 非裔和拉丁裔低收入儿童早期父子和母子 互动。 目的3：考察早期语言输入、共同参与、 和文化上截然不同的父子互动模式与语言发展和 非洲裔美国人和拉美裔美国人在小学早期的识字成就 低收入儿童。 目标4：探讨父子互动、父子语言和/或 这些因素与儿童语言发展和早期识字成绩的关系有所不同 按儿童性别分类。
