JOINT ENGAGEMENT OF MALAY-SPEAKING TYPICALLY-DEVELOPING CHILDREN Nur Baiti Inayah Zulkifli1, Nor Azrita Mohamed Zain2, Nurlin Ali Hanafiah3 1,2 3 Department of Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology, Kulliyyah of Allied Health Sciences, International Islamic University Malaysia, 25200 Kuantan, Pahang, Malaysia *Corresponding author email: baitiinayah13@gmail.com ABSTRACT Joint engagement (JE) is a state in which a child and a social partner attend to a same object or event. JE is a fundamental skill and important for the development of language and social skills in children. Parent-child interaction has been found as crucial for scaffolding children’s language skills development including in JE abilities. In this observational study, JE in 14 young Malay-speaking typically-developing (TD) children (M age = 64 months) were investigated during 20 minutes free-play interaction with their mothers. JE of TD children were coded and rated from video recordings using Joint Engagement Rating Inventory (JERI; Adamson, Bakeman, Suma et al., 2018). The results found that TD children displayed vary types of JE which includes engagement with person as well with object. Although other studies have documented JE of TD children, this was first known to explore the different states of JE in young TD Malay-speaking children as observed during mother-child interaction.
