Parent-reports of children's vocabulary skills : How reliable are parents' estimates of their children's vocabulary skills?

The study examined the reliability of parents' reports of their child's verbal skills. Parents to 17 children participated and completed the toddler version of the MacArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventory (CDI). It was found that the correlation between the reports made by the mothers and fathers was very strong. All in all the parents had a very similar understanding of their child's verbal skills. / Denna studie undersökte hur väl föräldrars rapport av deras barns språkförmåga stämmer överens.
