Vocabulary Development
Author: Jeremy M. Anglin
Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell
ISBN: 9780631224433

Book Description
This monograph studies research conducted for the purpose of investigating the relationship between vocabulary recognition and morphological knowledge during the early and middle elementary school years. The findings suggest that lexical development can be characterized in terms of increasing morphological complexity, and as a child ages, the proportion of known complex words that the child figured out by analyzing their morphological structure increased.
