How a person's thinking changes

Cognitive development is largely about how a person's thinking changes during their life. It includes both how knowledge is implemented in a simple system and how knowledge disappears. My contribution concerns children's dedication to language with a focus on early vocabulary.

Data has been collected mainly via parental reports in the form of a Swedish version of the McArthur-Bates Communicative Development Inventories.

Normative data for Swedish children together with possibilities for bilingual comparisons can be done on the CLEX website, at the University of Southern Denmark.
