Thanks! Especially that last article is pretty informative. I automatically use baby talk with my baby, but I've always felt kind of ridiculous and guilty about it. Now I can say it's science, I guess.

I can't see the full paper, but I don't think you can draw the conclusion that they do. The outstanding question that remains is whether it is the choice of words that seemed to affect the difference in attentiveness, or the tones in which the words were delivered. Edit: the final link in the parent does indeed address the issue I raised, I had only read the last of the numbered references, [1].
