Specifically, the university researchers will develop data augmentation and normalization...
- This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award of $160,000 supports an early career scientist's postdoctoral research at Harvard University investigating the potential role of overheard speech in children's language development. The research aims to thoroughly characterize everyday overheard and child-directed speech, and to understand how speech directed to different addressees may facilitate language learning. Using both...
- This $160,000 Project Grant awarded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program supports a postdoctoral fellowship to investigate how children develop communicative competence through peer interactions. The key objectives are to collect and analyze a large dataset of child-child conversations, develop computational models comparing communicative acts across adult-adult, parent-child, and child-child contexts, and conduct...
- 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...
This federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program provides $370,236 to the University of South Florida to use sensing technology and automated speech recognition to capture teacher-child language interactions in diverse pre-K classrooms. The project aims to examine how often preschool teachers engage in language interactions with students, whether certain children receive fewer or briefer interactions, and how these interactions relate to children's English language development over the school year. The research leverages advanced audio processing algorithms to provide a detailed analysis of classroom language use, with the goal of informing models of language development and equipping educators with actionable data to enhance language experiences in preschools. This 3-year award period begins on July 1, 2024.
