Digital Infant Directed Speech (DIDS)

This research project aims to understand how parents with young infants use digital technology to communicate when they are geographically separated from their infant.

Families with an infant aged between 6 - 12 months will be invited to participate in this study at the MARCS BabyLab.  Two brief interactions will be audio and video recorded for the researchers to analyse.  Mothers will also complete a short interview following the interaction.
