phonemes in early lexicon - reference

[Lorraine McCune]

Marilyn Vihman and I found that in children studied from 9 to 16 months,
that p/b was the most frequent consonant used in "stable words" (those
produced in both months 15 and 16), with a mean of 40%, across the 9 early
talkers who qualified for inclusion in the analysis by producing some of the
same words in both sessions. Other consonants used varied greatly by
individual child, with those consonants previously established as Vocal
Motor Schemes (by frequency of occurrence across sessions) for each child
occurring in over 90% of stable words.
