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 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 National Science Foundation (NSF) Project Grant, awarded under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075), provides $213,467 to The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania to conduct research on how infants learn language. The project consists of two related studies. The first study records interactions between parents and infants to understand when infant speech processing is interpretable. The second study creates and annotates a large corpus of everyday spoken...
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...
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 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...
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...
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,...
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...
This National Science Foundation (NSF) Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) Project Grant award provides $160,000 in funding from September 2024 to August 2026 to an early career researcher. The grant supports an investigation into the role of non-systematic structures in natural language, with the goal of better understanding language learning and use. Specifically, the research will develop a novel measure of systematicity in language using information theory tools, and then...
