The aim of this study was to explore the role of voices as cues to adults of children’s needs for potential caregiving during early childhood. To this purpose, 74
college students listened to pairs of 5-year-old versus 10-year-old children verbalizing neutral-content sentences and indicated which voice was better associated with
each of 14 traits, potentially meaningful in interactions between young children and
adults. Results indicated that children with immature voices were perceived more
positively and as being more helpless than children with mature voices. Children’s
voices, regardless of the content of speech, seem to be a powerful source of information about children’s need for caregiving for parents and others during the frst six
years of life. [-]
