Child Communication Development Profiles for 70 Children Aged 1-3 Years

70 children aged 1 to 3 years from two day care centers in Belo Horizonte were evaluated for hearing, language, and communication development. The study assessed the family and school environments using standardized inventories and scales, performing multiple regression analysis to find relationships. Author Jordana Siuves Dourado conducted this research to analyze the influence of environmental stimuli on childhood development.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between family environment resources and child communication scores based on the Inventory of Resources of the Family Environment.
• Analyzing the influence of school environment quality on communication development based on ITERS-R assessment scores.
• Predicting communication profile outcomes based on variables like hearing screening results and demographic factors.
• Studying gender differences in early communication development within a specific age cohort.

Strengths

• Data is based on evaluations of 70 children, providing a concrete sample size.
• Assessments used standardized instruments like the ITERS-R and a Communication Profile Protocol.
• Analysis includes multiple regression to identify relationships between independent and dependent variables.

Limitations

• Row count and column-level documentation are unknown; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Data may reflect geographic bias inherent to the two day care centers in Belo Horizonte.
• Last update date is unknown; freshness unverified.
