for both children and their parents. Though there are only a few short years between 2 and 4, the developmental stages and progression of language integration can be noted
in comparing children at different points along this developmental time line. Because children respond most frequently to their primary care providers or parents when using language in these
early years, and because they will also do so without the least amount of inhibition, this study relates the language development of young children through a question and answer interview
conducted by parents. In relating the language development of the 4 young children studied, it is the hope and expectation of the researcher that gains can be made in
understanding variations in language output that occur at different developmental periods. As a result, the theoretical basis presented will be utilized to understand the 4 children interviewed and the
outcomes of their interview process. Theoretical Background From the earliest period in our development as infants, the roots of language begin to show themselves. Infants use sounds to
convey their needs and to express emotions in much the same manner that individuals utilize fully development language patterns to convey similar information. Researchers have argued, though, that children
who are raised in environments with little communication or input develop language in a different manner than children who experience distinct, patterned and repetitive verbal input during their development.
Central to this view is support for cognitive development as the foundation for language processing, memory encoding and language output. Bruning et al (1999) related the importance of information
processing theory as it defines the progression of sensory, short-term, and working memory structures, as well as long-term memory, encoding and retrieval processes. This view provides a basis for
