Dear CHILDES community,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
I would like to ask for your advice and recommendations of MP3 audio <br>
recorders. I am looking to start recording a child aged 1;7 for a <br>
naturalistic study into Finnish morphology acquisition. The recordings will <br>
be collected by the Mother in their home environment. Essential qualities <br>
for the audio recorder are high sensitivity to detail, scene setting to <br>
focus on speech and/or background noise filter and USB connectivity. The <br>
Mother will be e-mailing the recordings to me on a regular basis so the <br>
easier the overall use of the device is the better!<br>
<br>
<br>
I am quite interested in Olympus WS 750M (<br>
<a href="http://www.amazon.co.uk/Olympus-WS-750M-Digital-recorder/dp/B003W2F4KE/ref=pd_cp_office_1" target="_blank">http://www.amazon.co.uk/Olympus-WS-750M-Digital-recorder/dp/B003W2F4KE/ref=pd_cp_office_1</a>). <br>
Do any of you have any experience with this recorder? Also, I would like to <br>
hear about other recorders you would recommend for me. Many thanks, Henna <br>

Dear list members,<br>
<br>
I am a PhD candidate at the Australian National University and I am in the <br>
process of conducting an exhaustive search of studies that have examined <br>
the relationship between play and language in young children. My hope is to <br>
conduct a meta-analysis of this data. To reduce publication bias I am <br>
looking for both published and unpublished data.<br>
<br>
I have exhausted the usual databases and have found what I think is a <br>
majority if not all published studies, but would welcome suggestions or <br>
contributions of unpublished works.<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
<br>
Sara Quinn<br>

Hello Sara<br>
<br>
I had a look to see if we published anything with 'play' in the title, <br>
and found the following 2, which you may have found, but in any event <br>
here the references are. Good luck in your work!<br>
