This study tested whether maternal responsivity would predict the extent to which Prelinguistic Milieu Teaching (PMT) facilitated generalized intentional communication better than a contrast treatment that was conducted in a small group by a responsive adult (i.e., Responsive Small Group, RSG). Fifty-eight children with developmental disabilities in the prelinguistic communication period of development were randomly assigned to one of the two staff-implemented treatment groups. Thirty were assigned to RSG; 28 were assigned to PMT. Mothers were kept naive to the intervention methods, hypotheses, and measures. In families with mothers who responded to a high percentage of the children's communication acts at the pre-treatment period, the children in the PMT group used more frequent intentional communication in post-treatment generalization sessions with a trainer and mothers than did children in the RSG group. In the families with mothers who responded to fewer than 39% of their children's communication acts, children in the RSG intervention used more frequent intentional communication in post-treatment generalization sessions with the mothers than did children in the PMT intervention. Other family variables and no child variables that we measured could account for these findings.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1044\/jslhr.4105.1207","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,7,29]],"date-time":"2014-07-29T21:11:10Z","timestamp":1406668270000},"page":"1207-1219","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":129,"title":["Maternal Responsivity Predicts the Prelinguistic Communication Intervention That Facilitates Generalized Intentional Communication"],"prefix":"10.1044","volume":"41","author":[{"given":"Paul J.","family":"Yoder","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Vanderbilt University Nashville, TN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Steven F.","family":"Warren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Vanderbilt University Nashville, TN"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1310","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"The development of shared attention during infancy","volume":"8","author":"Adamson L.","year":"1991","journal-title":"Annals of Child Development"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","volume-title":"Multiple regression: Testing and interpreting interactions","author":"Aiken L.
