Participants included 25 toddlers with developmental delay and their mothers. The dyads were observed during natural interactions at 6-month intervals over a 12-month period for a total of 3 observation points (O\n            <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n            , O\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            , O\n            <jats:sub>3<\/jats:sub>\n            ). Children's rate of nonverbal behavior that is often perceived as communication by adults was identified at O\n            <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n            and O\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            . In the investigation, the children's intentional nonverbal communication acts all included coordinated attention between the communication referent and the adult. The other types of prelinguistic communication behavior, termed gestural indicating behavior and social interaction signals, were produced without coordinated attention to the adult. Receptive and expressive language test scores and spontaneous word productions were analyzed at O\n            <jats:sub>3<\/jats:sub>\n            and served as outcome measures in regression analyses. Results indicated that rate of intentional nonverbal communication at O\n            <jats:sub>1<\/jats:sub>\n            was a predictor of spontaneous word productions at O\n            <jats:sub>3<\/jats:sub>\n            . At O\n            <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n            , rate of intentional communication and rate of gestural indicating behavior predicted subsequent language outcomes as measured by the Sequenced Inventory of Communication Development-Revised. The results are consistent with previous findings for intentional nonverbal communication that includes coordinated attention, but additionally demonstrate that prelinguistic behavior lacking coordinated attention also bears a relationship to subsequent language outcome. Discussion of observed patterns focuses on child and adult factors that may motivate the transition from prelinguistic to early symbolic communication.\n          <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1044\/jslhr.4305.1061","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,7,29]],"date-time":"2014-07-29T21:13:03Z","timestamp":1406668383000},"page":"1061-1071","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":56,"title":["Predicting Language Outcomes for Young Prelinguistic Children With Developmental Delay"],"prefix":"10.1044","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Amy M.","family":"Calandrella","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Arizona State University Tempe, AZ"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"M.
