<p>The acoustic properties of infant-directed speech (IDS) and the functions that IDS may serve in language development have been highly debated in research. However, previous research has mostly explored IDS in mothers and the preference for maternal IDS, with no studies assessing the role of exposure or parenthood experience on acoustic properties of IDS and infants’ preference for IDS. The current study will thus explore infant-directed speech in Norwegian fathers and the role of experience (duration of parental leave) on paternal language and infants’ preference for male IDS. By using eye tracking technology, this study will be one of few studies to explore whether first-born infants prefer male infant-directed speech in early language development and if preference is modulated by the amount of exposure to male IDS. The results of the current study will provide insight into the mechanisms involved in infant-directed speech and infants’ preference for IDS in infancy.&nbsp;</p>
