This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences (CFDA 47.075 - Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences) provides $410,651 over 3 years to New York University (NYU) to investigate the temporal structure of infant behaviors, including vocalizations, play, and language interactions within home environments. The project aims to describe the unfolding of these behaviors over time, test associations between infant and maternal vocal...
This National Science Foundation Division of Behavioral and Cognitive Sciences award, funded under the federal Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences grant program (CFDA 47.075), supports a collaborative research project titled "The Temporal Structure of Infants' Everyday Behaviors: Language and Play Interactions in the Home Environment." The $145,840 project, awarded to the University of Oregon on September 1, 2023 with a completion date of August 31, 2026, investigates how the...
This $213,467 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports research on how infants learn language by studying their interactions with caregivers. The project consists of two related studies: 1) recording speech and eye movements of infants playing with toys to understand when speech is interpretable to them, and 2) creating and annotating a large corpus of everyday spoken language to estimate...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $522,000 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Arizona for a 3-year research project titled "LANGDIV: BEYOND OBJECT-LABEL MAPPINGS: A TEMPORAL MICROANALYSIS OF TODDLER SEMANTIC AND LEXICAL INTEGRATION." The research aims to examine how the words that toddlers already know affect their ability to learn new words, providing insights to parents and educators on optimal...
This $146,005 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program will support research to examine how family stress and cohesion relate to a young child's language environment and language acquisition. The project consists of two studies: a secondary analysis of existing data from 100 families with 3- to 5-year-old children, and an intensive longitudinal study with natural home observations of 50...
This Project Grant, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (SBE) program (CFDA 47.075), will address two key research questions: (1) whether infants' motor skill acquisitions are related to the specific words they learn, and (2) whether language input that aligns with infants' motor actions facilitates word learning. The $380,398 award, effective August 1, 2024 and running through July 31, 2028, will support the University of Alabama's efforts...
The National Science Foundation SBE Office of Multidisciplinary Activities awarded a $217,800 two-year Project Grant to researchers at Berkeley, California to study the contributions of the environment and social interaction to language emergence. The grant is part of the NSF's Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), which supports basic research and education in these fields. Under the award, the researchers will investigate how environmental and social factors shape...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $109,799 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Florida Division of Sponsored Research. The grant supports a collaborative research project to use sensing technology and automated speech recognition to capture teacher language interactions in diverse pre-K classrooms. The project aims to provide insights into how preschool language experiences shape children's language...
This National Science Foundation project grant of $550,000 supports research to evaluate computational models of infant language acquisition against experimental data on English- and Spanish-learning infants. Funded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), the award will enable researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles to directly compare the output of different computational word segmentation models to infant behavioral data on the acquisition of...
The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $169,965 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Texas at Dallas (UTD) for a 3-year collaborative research project. The project aims to use innovative sensing technology and automated speech recognition to capture and analyze teacher language interactions with preschool children in diverse classroom settings. The goal is to gain insights into how teacher-child language experiences...

The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $138,337 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to the University of Georgia Research Foundation, Inc. (UGA Research Foundation) to study the temporal structure of infants' everyday behaviors, including language and play interactions in the home environment. The project aims to investigate how the temporal patterns of infant vocalizations, maternal speech, and infant object play relate to the sophistication of infants' sound and word production. The 3-year project will involve the transcription, coding, and analysis of over 400 hours of video-recorded infant-mother home activities across a diverse sample of over 150 families. The results are expected to provide new insights into the temporal features of early language development and inspire new theories and measurement tools in this area. This award reflects NSF's mission to advance scientific understanding and benefit society.
