Project Description
This corpus is based on videotapes collected by Lorraine McCune from 10
children ages 9-24 months, and again at 31 36 months in the 1980s.
Mothers are seated on the floor with their children and the same toys
are used each month. These videotapes were later digitized and Lorraine
and her students have linked video through 24 months for 3 so far:
Alice, Jase, and Rick.
In 2026, a complete new collection of transcripts was created using ASR.
However, the original transcripts for the three children and a few
additional can be found here.
The birthdates of the ten children are as follows:
- Alice - 07-JUL-1979
- Aurie - 06-JUL-1979
- Jase - 24-APR-1979
- Rick - 06-JUN-1979
- Ronny - 16-AUG-1979
- Vito - 30-JUN-1979
- Kari - 04-APR-1979
- Danny - 25-MAR-1979
- Nenni - 11-FEB-1979
- Rala - 30-MAY-1979
