The current study brought a bioecological approach to children’s early vocabulary development using data from the Longitudinal Study of Australian Children. Relevant data were available for 2188 children (1119 male) ?? who had a median age of 9 months (M = 9.3 months, SD = 2.1 months) ?? at Wave 1 and a median age of 34 months (M = 34.2 months, SD = 2.5 months) ?? at Wave 2. Results support the developmental importance of joint attention and parent-child book reading as well as the argument that the effects of individual (e.g., parent) ? and environmental (context)characteristics are primarily indirect, mediated through their impact on proximal processes (Bronfenbrenner, 1995). The evidence indicates that joint attention and parent-child book reading are important facilitators of children’s early vocabulary development.
