Abstract

Pointing behavior in childhood is typical developmental sign having strong correlation to his or her language development. This paper focuses on the pointing behavior accompanied by utterance during picture book reading. With this respect, we make use of picture books’ review data amounting to approximately 330 thousand, and analyze the reviews reflecting the pointing behavior with children’s utterance. The results show patterns of the pointing with utterance change corresponding to children’s developmental stages. Also, one of the pointing patterns is found to have strong relationship with a certain type of picture books.
