• Psychologists have discovered a principle called "state-specific memory." This means you remember things better in the same conditions that you learned them. For example, if you always study math at night, you will do better on a math exam taken at night. Use this concept to your advantage. | .V sleep and reported feeling a closer bond with their babies. The technique for learning Dunstan Baby Language is sold on DVDs available for order online. This makes it a-source of information that . can be watched at leisure repeatedly if needed until parents are confident in their ability to recognize the sound reflexes. In spite of the supposed benefits there are several criticisms that have surfaced regarding the claims made by Dunstan. One problem is that there is no methodology given for Dunstan s research only vague claims of success from caregivers who participated in the research process. This does not give the concrete data needed to prove the validity of the theory. Dunstan claims that this language is shared by all babies throughout the world. Yet there is no specific information on how many babies were studied where they were studied except for a brief mention of three English-speaking countries what language the babies were commonly exposed to or how the studies were conducted. Also researchers in the fields of linguistics and early language development question that the sounds Dunstan refers to as a language can be construed as such. They do not consider the sound reflexes to be formal. They have not been recorded in the . International Phonetic Alphabet and it is not clear what the Phonemes comprising the five sound reflexes mean. It is also unclear babies make these sounds inherently or if they are conditioned to make these sounds. For example if a mother feeds her baby every time the baby utters the sound reflex neh the baby may make the connection after a time. The baby may then make the sound to get food when desired. If Dunstan Baby Language does what it claims then it will certainly be a sought-after technique to aid parents and infants alike. If it does not live up to what it promises then caregivers will just have to go back to the old-fashioned way of baby care which has worked for centuries.
