<span style="font-size: 11pt;" class="">Brief googling has led me only to short (glowing) news reports 2017-18 and an unpublished ms. of a Brown University study of Providence Talks, which falls far short in research standards in my view. For evaluation of
change in child language skills, it uses only a self-administered parent evaluation form devised and provided by LENA itself to its participants.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>
