Content of maternal talk in six mother-infant dyads was used to determine whether mothers timed their talk to infants as they would when conversing with an adult. Results indicated that maternal talk of an informative nature (Type 1 acts) tended to follow a brief intervening interval of silence, while maternal talk containing little or no information (Type 2 acts) tended to occur when the mothers "talked with" (covocalized with) their infants. In addition, there was a significant trend for the overall proportion of Type 1 acts to increase over infant age. These findings support the view that, during mother-infant engagements, mothers behave like sophisticated conversational partners.
六个母婴二元组中母亲谈话的内容被用来确定母亲是否像与成年人交谈时那样为婴儿的谈话计时。结果表明，具有信息性的母亲谈话（1型行为）往往在短暂的沉默间隔后出现，而包含很少或不包含信息的母亲谈话（2型行为）往往在母亲与婴儿“一起交谈”（同步发声）时出现。此外，1型行为的总体比例随着婴儿年龄的增长有显著增加的趋势。这些发现支持了这样一种观点，即在母婴互动过程中，母亲的行为就像经验丰富的对话伙伴。
