It gets a lot of data, but doesn't tell us much. The particular topic that seems to interest him — what's called "motherese" in the literature (the way parents talk to children) — has been studied pretty carefully, notably by Lila Gleitman, the best psycholinguist in the modern period, I think (and an old friend). There doesn't seem to be much to it. And it's known that children develop language normally under all sorts of circumstances, including conditions very much unlike the ultra-nurturing ones that Roy is investigation. E.g., with no input, as in the cases I mentioned. And the results about words can't be right. At peak periods of language growth, children are picking them up at rate of about one per waking hour.
