Article analysis:
The article is written by Heather W. Moore, Erin E. Barton, Maria Chironis in 2014 and is about a program for improving toddler communication through parent coaching called Language and Play Everyday (LAPE). The article is well written and provides an overview of the program as well as its results. It also includes references to relevant research studies that support the claims made in the article. However, there are some potential biases that should be noted when considering the trustworthiness of this article. For example, the sample size used for this study was relatively small (only 8 families) which could lead to skewed results due to selection bias or other factors not accounted for in the study design. Additionally, it is unclear if any potential risks associated with participating in LAPE were discussed with participants prior to enrolling them in the program or if any follow-up assessments were conducted after completion of the program to assess long-term effects on participants' communication skills. Furthermore, while the authors provide evidence from relevant research studies to support their claims, they do not explore any counterarguments or alternative perspectives which could weaken their conclusions or provide additional insight into how LAPE may be improved upon in future iterations of the program. In conclusion, while this article provides an informative overview of LAPE and its results, there are some potential biases that should be taken into consideration when assessing its trustworthiness and reliability.
