Offer sequences between parents and young children with Down's syndrome.
Videorecordings were made in the homes of six children with Down's syndrome whose developmental ages ranged between about 1 and 2 years. Analysis of sequences initiated by parental offers to their children suggests that these children's response behaviour is sensitive to both non-verbal aspects of the offerer's behaviour and the context in which the offer is made.
